LOS ANGELES (Ticker) -- The Los Angeles Lakers should be glad to be home after an arduous six-game road trip.
The Lakers, who finished the trip with an exhausting loss, will look to fight off fatigue when they host the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday.
Los Angeles concluded a 3-3 trip with a 133-124 triple-overtime loss to the Charlotte Bobcats on Friday. Kobe Bryant led the Lakers with 58 points in 55 minutes while Luke Walton added 14 points.
The Sixers, whose eight wins are the least in the Eastern Conference, look to put together consecutive wins for the second time in the past 10 days.
Philadelphia, which posted wins over Boston and the New York Knicks on back-to-back days from December 23-24, is coming off a 98-95 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday.
Andre Iguodala scored 32 points while recent addition Andre Miller chipped in 25 for the Sixers, who will be playing the fourth game of a eight-game West Coast trip.
