Australian Dante Exum scored a season-high 11 points as his side Utah Jazz kept Philadelphia's NBA season winless.

Exum hit three three-pointers in the 109-84 away victory on Monday night (Tuesday AEDT) after being allowed more court time with starting point guard George Hill's withdrawal with a hand injury.

Playing almost 20 minutes, the outing was Exum's most productive since coming back from more than a year out of the game with a serious knee injury.

Exum's teammate Derrick Favors had 16 points and 14 rebounds, while Rodney Hood scored 18 in the Jazz's second straight win on the road.

Gordon Hayward scored 20 points in the second game of his return since he broke his right ring finger in training camp.

Jahlil Okafor led the Sixers with 15 points.

The Sixers, missing Australian No.1 draft pick Ben Simmons to a foot injury, are stranded at the bottom of the NBA standings with an 0-6 record.
