The Los Angeles Lakers ( 7 - 27 ) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers ( 3 - 32 ) 93 - 84 on Friday night . In a battle of the two worst teams in the NBA , the less worse team prevailed . Philly 's first win of the season came against the Lakers and it was evident Los Angeles wanted to return the favor in their home building . They played some of the best defense they 've played all season , as they allowed just 84 points on 37 percent shooting . They also dominated the turnover battle , as the Sixers committed 16 turnovers while the Lakers committed just 10 . Both teams shot under 38 percent from the field and they shot a combined 9 - for - 40 from long distance for an atrocious 23 percent . The Sixers have been a revived team recently , but could n't muster up much here . The worst offense in the NBA showed it 's true colors tonight and could n't get anything going . The only player who played well was Nerlens Noel , who tallied 15 points , 12 rebounds , three assists , three steals and three blocks in the loss . T.J. McConnell also had a solid game off the bench , as he amassed 12 points , seven assists and four rebounds . Jahlil Okafor came off the bench here once again and it may be time to re - insert him into the starting - five , considering he is the best offensive player on this team . The Sixers will have a tough task on Saturday , as they 'll have to play the Los Angeles Clippers in the second half of a back - to - back set . The Lakers played this game without Kobe Bryant and it was one of their best games of the season . The bench brought in some great energy , as all four players grabbed at least three rebounds and combined for an impressive 10 steals . Lou Williams was the star of the night though , as he contributed 24 points , five assists and four rebounds in the win . Larry Nance Jr. also had a nice game , as he set a career - high with 14 rebounds in the victory . This is n't a great win by any means , but it 's definitely something for them to build off of going forward . The Lakers will take on the Phoenix suns on Sunday in their next game .
