PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 30 (UPI) -- Philadelphia's Andre Iguodala put in 14 points and grabbed 11 rebounds Monday, propelling the 76ers to a 74-69 win over Orlando.

Evan Turner scored 12 points off the bench and Thaddeus Young added 10 in a reserve role for Philadelphia, which snapped a six-game home losing streak to the Magic despite shooting only 37.5 percent from the floor.

Elton Brand blocked four shots for the Sixers, who logged their third consecutive victory.

Orlando continued to struggle on offense, going 7-of-22 from 3-point range.

Dwight Howard registered 17 points and 11 rebounds for his 16th double-double of the season but it wasn't enough to prevent the Magic's fourth straight setback.

Ryan Anderson contributed 14 points and 20 rebounds for Orlando.
