Can the Philadelphia 76ers turn things around?

Thrives against former team Jordan closed with nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 FT) and seven rebounds in 14 minutes during Wednesday's 126-121 victory over the Lakers.

Impact Jordan came into the contest averaging just 3.6 points and 5.5 boards as a member of the 76ers, but he exceeded both of those marks Wednesday despite playing only 14 minutes. The veteran may have had extra motivation since the Lakers signed him in the offseason but cut ties with him at the end of February. Statistically, this was Jordan's second-best performance during his time with Philadelphia, trailing only the 10-point, nine-rebound effort he put forth against another former team -- the Brooklyn Nets -- on March 10.
