Trent Jr. scores 27 points and Raptors beat struggling 76ers 119-109

TORONTO — Gary Trent Jr. scored 27 points while Pascal Siakam had 20 points and 13 assists and the Toronto Raptors beat the struggling Philadelphia 76ers 119-109 on Wednesday.

Six Raptors scored in double figures. Scottie Barnes finished with 16 points and 10 boards, O.G. Anunoby and Fred VanVleet recorded 15 points apiece, and Chris Boucher chipped in with 13 for the Raptors (3-1), who exacted a bit of revenge after last season's playoff loss.

Joel Embiid scored 31 points to top the Sixers (1-4), who stumbled out to an 0-3 season start that James Harden said "felt like we were 0-82" before beating Indiana 120-106 on Monday.
