Leonard finished with 41 points on 39 shots, while Serge Ibaka (17 points and eight boards), Pascal Siakam (11 points and 11 rebounds) and Kyle Lowry (10 points, six assists, six rebounds and two steals) provided support.

All five Philadelphia starters scored in double figures, including Joel Embiid (21 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks), but nobody could match Leonard’s heroics.
