Sixers Fall To 0-13 At Home With Loss To Celtics
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kelly Olynyk scored a career-high 30 points, leading the Boston Celtics to a 105-87 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night.
Avery Bradley had 15 points, and Brandon Bass and Jeff Green added 14 apiece for Boston (8-14), which snapped a three-game skid.
Rookie Nerlens Noel had a career-high 19 points for the 76ers (2-22), who dropped to 0-13 at home this season. Philadelphia moved closer to the NBA mark for worst home start to a season, set in the 1993-94 season when the Mavericks began 0-19.
The 76ers were coming off a late collapse in Saturday's 120-115 overtime home loss to Memphis when they gave up an 18-point lead with 7:39 left in the fourth quarter.
