PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10 (UPI) -- Chris Paul hit a turnaround jump shot with 3.2 seconds to play Friday, giving the Los Angeles Clippers a 78-77 victory over Philadelphia.
Lou Williams put the 76ers one point in front by hitting two foul shots with 18 seconds left, but Paul soon followed with the last of his 24 points to bring the Clippers their seventh win in nine games.
Los Angeles is 3-1 on a six-game road trip that concludes with stops in Charlotte and Dallas.
The Clippers made just 38 percent of their shots from the field, but Paul hit 10-of-20. Blake Griffin added 16 points and 11 rebounds for Los Angeles while Reggie Evans grabbed 10 rebounds in only 19 minutes.
Philadelphia has lost two in a row for the first time this season. The 76ers dropped a 100-90 decision at home to San Antonio Wednesday.
Andre Iguodala and Elton Brand both scored 12 points for Philadelphia, which will now go on the road for three games.
