PHILADELPHIA (AP) Brandon Ingram made the winning 3-pointer with 0.8 seconds left and finished with 21 points in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 107-104 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday night.
Julius Randle and Jordan Clarkson each added 16 points to help the Lakers snap a five-game skid.
Joel Embiid scored 33 points, and Ben Simmons had a triple-double with 12 points, 13 rebounds and 15 assists for Philadelphia.
The 76ers overcame a 16-point second-half deficit to tie it on Embiid’s two free throws with 39.8 seconds remaining. Lonzo Ball missed a 3 on Los Angeles’ ensuing possession, and Embiid then missed a chance to give Philadelphia the lead.
On the winning play, Ball drove to the basket before dishing back to Ingram on the right wing. After a timeout, Richaun Holmes’ tying attempt at the buzzer was way off.
The winning basket sent Ball’s dad, LaVar, into a wild celebration in a suite. Lonzo Ball, loudly booed every time he touched the ball, had 10 points, eight rebounds and eight assists.
WIZARDS 109, SUNS 99
