NBA roundup: Celtics storm past 76ers in London

Outscoring Philadelphia 66-46 in the second half, Boston overcame a 22-point,
second-quarter deficit and claimed a 114-103 victory at O2 Arena.

Brown led five players in double figures for the Celtics, with Kyrie Irving
adding 20 to go along with seven assists and six rebounds. Marcus Morris
scored 19 points and grabbed eight rebounds, and Al Horford collected 13
points, eight boards and seven assists.

JJ Redick scored a game-high 22 points for Philadelphia, while rookie Ben
Simmons hit for 16. Joel Embiid contributed a 15-point, 10-rebound
double-double.

Raptors 133, Cavaliers 99

Fred VanVleet scored a career-high 22 points on 8-of-11 shooting as host
Toronto steamrolled Cleveland.

contributed 15 points and a season-high 18 rebounds for the Raptors. Pascal
Siakam also scored 16 points as Toronto won for the sixth time in seven games.

LeBron James had 26 points for the Cavaliers, who were routed for the second
straight contest while losing for the sixth time in the past eight games.

Clippers 121, Kings 115

Blake Griffin returned from a two-game absence caused by a concussion and hit
a go-ahead 3-pointer with 1:55 to play, sending Los Angeles past host

the injury-ravaged Clippers, who lost star center DeAndre Jordan to a sprained
left ankle in the second quarter.

the Golden State Warriors, followed up with a game-high 30 against the Kings.
Griffin added an 18-point, 12-rebound double-double. Bogdan Bogdanovic topped
Sacramento with 22 points.

Brandon Ingram scored 26 points, and Lonzo Ball contributed 18 points, 10
rebounds and six assists as Los Angeles knocked off visiting San Antonio.

Larry Nance Jr. added 14 points and 10 rebounds for the Lakers, who won their
season-best third consecutive game. Los Angeles forced 20 turnovers and halted
a seven-game home losing streak versus San Antonio.

LaMarcus Aldridge scored 20 points for the Spurs, who were without Kawhi
Leonard (shoulder) for the third straight game. Bryn Forbes added 18 points
for San Antonio.
