HOUSTON (AP) — James Harden scored 35 points, including an off-balance layup with 9 seconds left, to lead Houston past winless Philadelphia.

Philadelphia had a chance to win it at the buzzer, but Carter-Williams missed a jump shot.
Tony Wroten scored 19 for the Sixers, who led for most of the game after an embarrassing 53-point loss to Dallas on Thursday.
