TORONTO (Ticker) -- After stumbling out of the gate, the
Philadelphia 76ers will try to extend a recent surge when they
visit the winless Toronto Raptors in the back end of a

Tuesday's contest at the Wachovia Center. Allen Iverson had one
of his best all-around games with 34 points and 12 assists.
Chris Webber also had a solid game for the Sixers, collecting 28
points, a season-high 16 rebounds and five assists.
Raptors rookie Charlie Villanueva posted his second straight
double-double with season bests of 27 points and 13 rebounds. In
his previous game, he posted 26 points and 12 boards.
Chris Bosh also had a solid outing with 19 points and 17
rebounds for Toronto, which is 0-5 at the Air Canada Centre.
