Andre Iguodala was denied a third consecutive triple-double, but his 16 points and 10 assists helped lead the visiting Philadelphia 76ers past the reeling Indiana Pacers 110-100 on Tuesday night.
Philadelphia (33-30), which has won seven of eight and 16 of its last 21, moved 6 1/2 games ahead of the Pacers for seventh in the Eastern Conference.
Thaddeus Young scored 18 points on 9-of-13 shooting, Jrue Holiday had 16, Jodie Meeks scored 15, Spencer Hawes and Elton Brand 12 scored apiece and Evan Turner had 10 as the 76ers had seven players in double figures.
Tyler Hansbrough led the Pacers (27-36), who have lost four in a row and six of seven, with 26 points.
After leading 65-53 at halftime, Philadelphia boosted its lead to 79-58 in the third quarter. The Pacers pulled to 100-93 with two minutes left, but a long 3-pointer by Meeks and free throws sealed Philadelphia's victory.
