Cleveland, OH, United States (AHN Sports) – Jrue Holiday scored 20 points and dished out 5 dimes and the Philadelphia 76ers defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers, 99-84, Saturday night at Quicken Loans Arena.

Philadelphia snapped their two game losing skid in a big way as Holiday led six Sixers players in double figures en route to a blowout victory in Cleveland.

Sixth Man of the Year frontrunner Lou Williams recorded 19 points and 5 assists and Thaddeus Young tallied 16 points and 6 boards off the bench.

After a tight contest in the first quarter, the Sixers unloaded the big guns in the second period and built a 17-point advantage at the break.

The Sixers offensive onslaught continued into the second half, abusing a Cavs team that missed starting center Anderson Varejao with a fractured right wrist.

Backup guard Ramon Sessions once again filled up the spot for injured rookie guard Kyrie Irving (concussions) and produced 19 points and 8 dimes to set the pace for the Cavs. Antawn Jamison had 20 points and 8 boards and Alonzo Gee added 17 in the defeat.

Aside from snapping the two-game slump, the win kept the Sixers in the top 3 of the Eastern Conference standings with a 19-9 slate. The Cavs absorbed their second consecutive loss and dropped to 10-16 in the season.
