It’s been six years since the Philadelphia 76ers won in Phoenix. That streak ended Saturday night in a shocking NBA result as the 76ers got 32 points from Andre Iguodala in a 119-114 victory.

Andre Miller had a double-double (25 points, 12 assists) for Philadelphia, which beat the point spread. Favored by 10, the Suns dropped back-to-back home games for the first time this season and have to think the Shaquille O’Neal experiment is looking like a bust.

Phoenix is 2-4 since the Diesel joined the lineup following a trade with Miami.

The 76ers shot 57 percent and also got 17 points from Willie Green, including two key free throws in the waning seconds.

In other NBA action on Saturday:

Spurs 96, Bucks 94: Manu Ginobili and the Spurs stayed hot by stretching their winning streak to eight games. Ginobili scored 30 points, including a winning jumper with 13.2 seconds to play, and San Antonio won in Milwaukee as a seven-point favorite.

Orlando 118, New York 92:
Dwight Howard had a monster game with 26 points and 22 rebounds as the Magic thumped the Knicks in O-town. Hedo Turkoglu added 25 points and 10 assists for Orlando, which was a 12-point home favorite.

Bet on the NBA!
