Toronto, ON (SportsNetwork.com) – DeMar DeRozan scored 24 points in limited
action as the Toronto Raptors rolled to a 120-88 rout of the winless
Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday.
DeRozan shot 8-of-12 before sitting the entire fourth quarter with the game
well in hand. Terrence Ross had 17 points and Louis Williams dropped 16 off
the bench against his former team.
Toronto led by 41 late in the fourth, one point shy of the biggest win in
franchise history, but the Sixers closed the gap with a 13-4 run to finish the
game. The Raptors beat Miami 96-54 in 2008.
Tony Wroten led Philly with 18 points and Chris Johnson finished with 16
off the bench. The Sixers fell to 0-7 on the season with the dreaded Texas
road trip on deck, as meetings with Dallas, Houston and San Antonio are next
on the schedule.
