The Nets ended a three-game losing streak to the Philadelphia 76ers with an 88-70 victory Friday at Barclays Center, as Mason Plumlee posted 18 points and 10 rebounds to lead the way.
Alan Anderson and Joe Johnson scored 12 points apiece and Deron Williams handed out 10 assists for the Nets, who scored 25 of the 35 points in the fourth quarter and scored 25 points off 24 Philadelphia turnovers.

"We were more active. Lots of deflections, lots of steals," Williams said.
Charlotte had a two-game winning streak stopped with Friday's 113-107 double- overtime loss against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Memphis is a tough place to play and the Hornets weren't intimidated in lasting two extra periods. Kemba Walker scored a game-high 28 points for the Hornets, while Gary Neal added 25 points off the bench.
Gerald Henderson scored 10 points on 4-of-12 shooting and his tip-in at the end of regulation forced overtime. The Grizzlies posted an 11-5 edge in the second OT to remain solid at home.
"We played hard, but they're a really good team," Walker said. "At the end of the day that's what matters."
Al Jefferson posted 16 points and nine rebounds in defeat.
The Hornets have lost 11 of their last 13 games, but are unbeaten in the previous two at Time Warner Cable Arena.
Charlotte and Brooklyn will play the first of three meetings this season and are scheduled to meet twice in March. The two teams split four meetings a season ago.
