Academy Award-winner Jamie Foxx was in the house. World Series champions Jimmy Rollins and Jayson Werth also stopped by to watch the 76ers extend the longest winning streak in the NBA.
The Sixers surprisingly pulled away late against the Southwest Division-leading Spurs, and they put on quite a show at the buzzer for their famous guests. Iguodala hit a 28-footer to end the first quarter, a 44-footer to end the first half and Lou Williams buried a 28-footer to end the third.
The Spurs were the fourth team with a winning record the Sixers beat on this streak, proving that they might be ready to make some noise in the Eastern Conference. The Spurs won 108-106 on a buzzer-beater in San Antonio on Jan. 3 to end Philadelphia's 1-5 road trip.
The Sixers haven't lost since.
Iguodala is playing some of the best basketball of his career in Brand's absence, and the Sixers will need to find a way for the swingman to keep getting his touches.
Samuel Dalembert completed an alley-oop, then a regular dunk in the third for a 13-point lead. Iguodala followed with a sweet baseline spin move around Bruce Bowen and finished the play with a reverse dunk for a 75-59 lead.
With the crowd yelling for the Sixers to get the ball to Iguodala as the final seconds ticked off the quarter, Williams dribbled his own defensive rebound down to the first seat of San Antonio's bench and let it fly. Bang! Three buzzer beaters and an 85-70 lead.
The Sixers carried that momentum in the fourth and used a 12-0 run to lead by a staggering 26 points.
