SACRAMENTO, March 23 (UPI) -- Andre Iguodala led all scorers with 27 points and grabbed seven rebounds Sunday to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 112-100 win over Sacramento.

Thaddeus Young had 22 points and six rebounds, Lou Williams scored 18 and Marreese Speights had 15 for the Sixers, who evened their record at 2-2 on a five-game road strip that ends Monday in Portland.

Francisco Garcia led the Kings with 24 points. Spencer Hawes had 17 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists for the Kings, who have split their last two games but have lost six out of seven.

The 76ers opened the game with a 10-2 run and extended the lead to 35-17 after one quarter. They went up 69-43 at the half and the Kings never threatened until they used a 9-2 fourth-period run to get within 103-92. That was the closest Sacramento could come the rest of the way.
