TORONTO, Dec. 18 (UPI) -- Andre Iguodala scored a game-high 26 points and Kyle Korver added 23, leading the Philadelphia 76ers to a 107-80 win over the Toronto Raptors.

Iguodala scored 13 points in the third quarter for the Sixers, who rebounded from a loss to Miami and posted their fifth win in six games. Allen Iverson wasn't needed late in the game and finished with 18 points while Samuel Dalembert chipped in 11 points and a game-high 18 rebounds in the win.

"It's good to see Sam (Dalembert) rebound like that," said 76ers head coach Maurice Cheeks, who has been stressing the team's need for rebounds this season. "That's what we need."

Chris Bosh led the Raptors with 22 points and seven rebounds. Rookie Charlie Villanueva added 15 points off the bench for Toronto, losers of three straight.

The Raptors, who have dropped six in a row at home, are 1-12 at the Air Canada Centre this season.
