INDIANAPOLIS, March 9 (UPI) -- Dahntay Jones scored 25 points Tuesday, picking up the slack for suspended Danny Granger and helping the Indiana Pacers to a 107-96 win over Philadelphia.
Granger, Indiana's leading scorer, was suspended for one game earlier Tuesday for participating in an on-court fight Saturday against Phoenix.
Also chipping in in Granger's absence was Brandon Rush, who came up with 24 points and nine boards, while Troy Murphy contributed 19 points and collected eight caroms as Indiana snapped a four-game losing streak.
Roy Hibbert played a nice all-around game with 12 points, 11 boards and seven assists in the victory.
The Sixers were led by Jrue Holiday's 21 points while Samuel Dalembert contributed 16 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks in defeat.
