John Salmons contributed 19 points and Beno Udrih had 15 for the Kings, who entered the game with nine straight road losses to open a season, matching a team record set in 1987-88 and again in 1993-94.
The Kings also broke the streak without injured starters Mike Bibby, Kevin Martin, and Shareef Abdur-Rahim.
Andre Miller scored 24 points, Willie Green added 16, and Andre Iguodala and Lou Williams had 15 apiece for the Sixers, whose season-best four-game win streak was snapped. Kyle Korver added 13 for the Sixers.

Reserve Josh Boone added a season-high 15, going 2 for 4 from the line when the Cavs intentionally fouled him on consecutive possessions in the fourth quarter. Boone, who threw up an air ball from the line earlier, was 3 of 8 there overall.
Jason Kidd finished with 8 points, 11 assists, and 9 rebounds as the Nets overcame their usual slow start at home to win for only the second time in seven games.
LeBron James had 29 points, 8 assists, and 6 rebounds for Cleveland.
Warriors 108, Lakers 106 - In Oakland, Calif., Baron Davis put his usual game-breaking flair on the decisive 3-pointer with 16.8 seconds to play, and Golden State roared from behind in the final minutes to snap its nine-game losing streak against Los Angeles.
Davis had 8 of his 22 points and an assist in the final 3:19 for the Warriors, who beat Los Angeles for just the second time in 16 meetings.
Kobe Bryant scored 21 points for the Lakers, who had an 8-point lead with 3 1/2 minutes to play when the Warriors went through a 4:45 stretch with just one field goal. But Davis led Golden State back with two free throws, a 3-pointer, and an assist on Stephen Jackson's tying layup with 1:54 left.

Joe Johnson scored 23 and Marvin Williams added 15 for the Hawks, who dressed only 11 players. Josh Childress missed the game with a recurring groin injury and rookie Al Horford was suspended for Tuesday's flagrant foul on Toronto guard T.J. Ford.
Magic 103, Bobcats 87 - Dwight Howard had 33 points and 18 rebounds and visiting Orlando beat undermanned Charlotte to snap a three-game losing streak.
Hitting the court an hour after a trade that sent starting center Primoz Brezec and forward Walter Herrmann to Detroit for center Nazr Mohammed, the Bobcats were no match for Howard inside. Brezec, who was told of the trade as he was warming up an hour before tipoff, was replaced in the starting lineup by Ryan Hollins. He picked up three fouls in five minutes, forcing little-used Othella Harrington to guard Howard, without success.
