BOSTON -- The Philadelphia 76ers, still playing without injured center Andrew Bynum, won their second straight game on a three-game road trip Friday night, outlasting the Boston Celtics 106-100. Evan Turner scored 25 points and had 11 rebounds and four assists and Jrue Holiday had 21 points, 14 assists and four boards. The Sixers, awaiting Bynum's return from his latest knee woes and his debut with his new team, moved to 3-2 on the season. Philadelphia, which allowed just 62 points while beating the host New Orleans Hornets on the first stop on the trip, overcame a 1-for-10 shooting start and took an 11-10 lead.

The visitors spoiled another stellar performance by Boston's Rajon Rondo, who had 20 assists and 14 points in his fifth double-double in as many games. Dorell Wright and Thaddeus Young added 15 points for the Sixers, w...
