Paul George scored 21 points and handed out nine assists Friday as the 76ers topped the Orlando Magic 102-94 to earn a split of the teams' two-game home series in Philadelphia.

The Sixers dropped a 106-102 decision to the Magic on Wednesday in the absence of George (knee), but they authored a crisper effort in this one despite once again playing without Joel Embiid (knee).
