(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - Marquis Daniels scored a season-high 26 points as the Indiana Pacers picked up their third-straight win, defeating the Philadelphia 76ers 102-85.

Before Wednesday's game, the Pacers announced that they have released center Courtney Sims - again. It is the third time the Pacers have cut the rookie from the University of Michigan this season. Sims' constant reappearances on the Indiana roster has been due to injuries to the Pacers' big men this season.
