PHILADELPHIA -- Michael Carter-Williams and Victor Oladipo gave the NBA a double dose of triple-double history. Carter-Williams had 27 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists for Philadelphia, and Oladipo had 26 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for Orlando, the first time two rookies had a triple-double in the same game. After 58 minutes of hoops, Carter-Williams had the only stat that truly mattered -- the win. Carter-Williams had his first career triple-double, and Thaddeus Young added 25 points and 12 rebounds to lead the 76ers past the Magic 126-125 in double-overtime on Tuesday night. Carter-Williams got his 10th assist on a dish to Young late in the second OT to put the Sixers up 125-120. "Its not me versus Oladipo," Carter-Williams said. "Its Sixers versus Orlando. Its a team game. I just wanted to get the win." Evan Turner had 24 points for Philadelphia, which snapped a four-game losing streak. James Anderson added 19 points and Spencer Hawes 17. Arron Afflalo scored a career-high 43 points for the Magic and Glen Davis had a career-high 33. "Im upset we lost, but under the circumstances of how we were able to stay in the game, Im proud of the guys," Afflalo said. Turner was whistled for his fifth foul with 12.1 seconds left in the first OT on Afflalos 3-point attempt. Afflalo made all three free throws, tying the score at 118. The Magic fell behind early in the second overtime and the Sixers held on from the free-throw line. The Magic, coming off a 98-80 loss at Washington on Monday night, played without Nik Vucevic (14.7 ppg, 10.9 rpg) because of a sprained left ankle and point guard Jameer Nelson (sprained left foot). Davis stunned the Sixers with his first 3-pointer of the season, nailing it from the top of the key to tie the score at 104-all with 18 seconds left in the fourth quarter. He was 6 for 40 in his career on 3s and hadnt made one since the 2011-12 season. "He loves playing, he loves competing, he loves to win," coach Jacque Vaughn said. "Im going to spring for some ice for the ice bath and cool him down for two days from now." Afflalo sparked a rally earlier in the quarter, capping a 9-0 run with a jumper that gave the Magic a 98-96 lead with 2:45 left. After the Sixers grabbed a four-point lead, Afflalo buried his fourth 3 to make it a one-point game. Young scored for the Sixers, then Davis connected in the clutch. The Sixers stil had a huge edge beyond the arc, making 11 of 29. The Magic missed 20 of 26. "We pulled it out, and thats huge," Turner said. "The experience is great. Both sides have young teams. Im just glad we were able to come out on top. It was crazy." Carter-Williams first 3 of the game in the third made it 83-72, getting a rise out of the roughly 10,000 fans who turned out for this one. Carter-Williams was named Eastern Conference rookie of the month before the game, the first Sixers rookie to win the award since Allen Iverson in April 1997. Carter-Williams, the 11th overall pick of the draft, had already scored 20-plus points five times this season and helped the Sixers beat Miami, Washington and Chicago to open the season. He made 11 of 19 shots and chipped in three steals with a banged-up right knee against the Magic. The Sixers (7-12) have cooled considerably since their surprising start, but first-year coach Brett Brown has them playing hard and playing smart. As the NBA season tipped off, the over-under out of Las Vegas for total wins for the 76ers this year was 16.5, the lowest of any team in the league. They should top that -- and Carter-Williams is a big reason why the Sixers are somehow in the playoff mix. "We all played great," Carter-Williams said. Of course, an Atlantic Division littered with bad basketball and underachievers also has the Sixers in the hunt. None of the five teams in the division have a winning record. The Magics record would have them chasing first in the Atlantic instead of dumping them in last in the Southeast Division, well behind Miami. Afflalo was 14 of 27 from the field, made five of Orlandos six 3s, and was 10 of 11 from the free-throw line. "Its was a long game and, to lose by a point, that was a tough," Afflalo said. NOTES: Orlando played the second game of a six-game road trip. ... Carter-Williams had Philadelphias first triple-double since Andre Iguodala on March 23, 2005. ... Orlandos starters scored all but nine points. ... There were 23 lead changes and 16 ties. . The 18th player to shoot 60 on the tour, Jamieson settled for par on the final hole when his 15-foot birdie chip grazed the edge of the hole and stayed out. After opening with rounds of 66 and 73 to make the cut by a stroke, he had 11 birdies in the bogey-free round.

Now, correct me if Im wrong but I saw one official distinctly pointing at the net indicating a good goal but after an inconclusive review they overturned the goal. Shouldnt the ruling on the ice (good goal) stand after an inconclusive review? Why was this overturned? James Veaudry Pembroke, ON -- Hey Kerry, Youll get a lot of these, but why was the Montreal goal against Nashville Saturday night overturned? Eller puts the puck on net and the on ice ruling from the ref behind the net is a Montreal goal. http://www.footballpatriotsofficia... . -- Team after team passed on Andre Ellington in the draft.

Johnson Womens Jersey . -- Brandon Jennings made the most of his first game with the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night. . 8 Kansas to a 64-63 win over Texas Tech on Tuesday night. The freshman from Vaughan, Ont.The Calgary Flames try to string together back-to-back wins for only the second time this season as they play host on Wednesday night to the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Flames have not won two straight since Oct. 9-11, a pair of home wins over Montreal and New Jersey that were part of a 3-0-2 start. However, they are just 4-11-1 since and snapped a six-game slide with Mondays 5-4 shootout victory over the Winnipeg Jets. Calgary failed to hold four one-goal leads in the game, giving up an overtime- forcing tally with just six seconds left in regulation. However, Reto Berra was strong in overtime and stopped six of the eight skaters he faced in the shootout, while Joe Colborne, Lee Stempniak and Sean Monahan all tallied in the tiebreaker. Mike Cammalleri and T.J. Brodie had a goal and an assist in regulation, while Lance Bouma and Jiri Hudler also lit the lamp. Berra made 43 saves in total, with the rookie improving to 2-4-1 with a 3.66 goals against average and .889 save percentage in seven starts. Berra picked up both his first win and Calgarys first triumph since Nov. 3 in Chicago. "I think that theyre charging the fans to leave the building, because if that one was not exciting for them it sure was for me," said Calgary head coach Bob Hartley. "We made it interesting, we made it tough on us, but at the end we found a way to win, so big two points." The Flames next look to snap a five-game home losing streak and will play their next three in Calgary. While the Flames are coming off what Hartley saw as an exciting win, the Blue Jackets put together a forgettable performance on Tuesdaay night.ddddddddddddComing off its first victory in four games, Columbus was routed 7-0 by the hosting Edmonton Oilers. Sergei Bobrovsky allowed four goals on 18 shots before getting lifted just shy of the halfway mark of the second period. Curtis McElhinney allowed three goals on 14 shots in relief. Columbus had snapped an 0-0-3 slide with a victory in Ottawa on Sunday, but lost for the ninth time in the last 11 games overall. The Blue Jackets were shut out for a second time this season and managed a season-low 14 shots on goal. "Im just really, really disappointed," said Blue Jackets coach Todd Richards. "We werent ready to play the game. We werent ready to battle. We werent ready to do the things necessary to win. There was no desperation and no urgency. I dont know if we get too high on ourselves. You are going to have no success in this league, and it was proven tonight first-hand, if you arent ready and willing to battle, this is whats going to happen." Bobrovsky could get the call tonight in the third contest of a five-game road trip and is 1-1-2 with a 2.69 GAA in four previous meetings with the Flames. That includes a loss in Columbus on Oct. 4, yielding four goals on 30 shots. McElhinney beat Calgary the only other time he faced them, but that came back on Feb. 11, 2011 while with Anaheim despite giving up four goals on 25 shots. The Flames bested the Blue Jackets for the first time in the last three meetings with the win back on Oct. 4. Hudler and Curtis Glencross had third- period goals and Monahan scored in his first NHL game. Columbus has still won three straight in Calgary.
