76ers 105, Pacers 95: Dorell Wright led six players in double figures with 23 points for visiting Philadelphia as Indiana rested most of its starting lineup for the playoffs.
Evan Turner added 16 points, Damien Wilkins scored 15 and Arnett Moultrie had 14 points and 12 rebounds for the 76ers, who finished a disappointing season with three wins in their last four games. Lavoy Allen had 11 points and 11 boards while Thaddeus Young contributed 10 points.
Gerald Green scored a season-high 34 points for the Pacers, who decided to finish their season without starters George Hill, Paul George, David West and Roy Hibbert since they had previously clinched the third seed in the Eastern Conference. Tyler Hansbrough finished with 10 points and nine rebounds in a rare start.
Lance Stephenson was the only regular starter in the lineup for Indiana and Philadelphia took full advantage, scoring the first 11 points of the game and leading by as many as 13 in the first quarter en route to a 59-37 advantage at halftime.
Green scored 17 of the Pacers' 31 points in the third quarter. Indiana pulled within seven points in the fourth, but Moultrie scored six of the final eight points for the 76ers to seal the win.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Hansbrough was the only Pacers player to play all 81 games in a season shortened by Monday’s Boston Marathon bombings. ... Philadelphia finished its season series with the Pacers tied at two games apiece. ... Indiana will face the Atlanta Hawks in the first round of the playoffs. The series begins Sunday.
