Wizards edge 76ers 108-107 after owner's death

WASHINGTON (AP) - November 24, 2009 Nick Young added 20 points for the Wizards as they snapped a two-game skid despite playing without Caron Butler, who sat out with a sore right ankle.

Louis Williams' layup pulled Philadelphia to 108-107 with 40 seconds remaining. After Gilbert Arenas committed a turnover with 28 seconds left, Williams missed a potential game-winning 3-pointer as the final buzzer sounded.

There was a moment of silence before the national anthem was played at Verizon Center, which Pollin built mostly with his own money.
