NBA Capsules

PHOENIX -- Isaiah Thomas scored 15 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter to lead the Phoenix Suns to a come-from-behind 107-95 victory Sunday over the Golden State Warriors, leaving the NBA with no unbeaten teams.

Fellow reserve Gerald Green added 16 of his 19 points in the final quarter, when the Suns surged ahead after trailing by eight through three.

Stephen Curry scored 28 points but just six in the second half, when he was plagued by missed shots and foul trouble. Curry, who entered tied for the NBA scoring lead, added 10 assists for his fourth double-double of the season.

Draymond Green added 22 points and nine rebounds for the Warriors (5-1), who played without Klay Thompson (sprained right hand).

LAKERS 107, HORNETS 92

LOS ANGELES -- Kobe Bryant and Jeremy Lin each scored 21 points, and Los Angeles rallied to beat Charlotte for its first victory of the season after five straight losses.

Carlos Boozer added 16 points in Byron Scott's first win as Lakers coach. Their victory left Philadelphia as the NBA's only winless team at 0-7.

Lin and Boozer's offense dominated the third, when the Lakers were down by seven before a 25-6 run sent them into the fourth leading 76-64.

Al Jefferson scored 23 points and Kemba Walker added 17 for the Hornets, whose two-game winning streak ended. Gary Neal added 14 off the bench and Lance Stephenson had 10 rebounds.

HEAT 105, MAVERICKS 96

DALLAS -- Luol Deng scored a season-high 30 points, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade added 20 apiece and Miami stayed perfect against Dallas since the 2011 NBA Finals.

The Heat have won seven straight regular-season games against the Mavericks since Dallas took three in a row in the finals to capture its first championship.

Miami was without LeBron James in this rematch, while the Mavericks faced the Heat for the first time since the return of two important pieces from their title team, Tyson Chandler and J.J. Barea.

But Deng was the key offseason acquisition that mattered most, going 13 of 19 from the field with five rebounds and four assists as the ball-moving Heat shot 55 percent to 42 percent for Dallas.

Monta Ellis led the Mavericks with 23 points.

RAPTORS 120, 76ERS 88

TORONTO -- DeMar DeRozan scored 24 points, Terrence Ross had 17 and Toronto routed winless Philadelphia for its sixth victory in seven games.

Lou Williams added 16 against his former team and Kyle Lowry had 14 as the Raptors, who are alone atop the Eastern Conference for the first time in their 20-year history. They were tied for first in November 2004.

Toronto set a season high in points against the 76ers, who were even worse defensively than when they allowed 118 points against Chicago on Friday.

Tony Wroten scored 18 points and Chris Johnson had 16 for the 76ers, who lost for the 70th time in their past 86 regular-season games.

TRAIL BLAZERS 116, NUGGETS 100

PORTLAND, Ore. -- LaMarcus Aldridge scored 28 points and Portland handed Denver its fifth straight loss.

Wesley Matthews added 21 for the Blazers, who have won three of their last four.

Ty Lawson had 18 points for Denver after missing the team's 110-101 loss at home to Cleveland on Friday night because of a sore left ankle. Kenneth Faried led the Nuggets with 19 points.

Portland was coming off a 106-102 loss to the Clippers in Los Angeles the day before but showed no sign of fatigue, leading by as many as 17 points in the fourth quarter.

THUNDER 101, KINGS 93

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Reggie Jackson scored 11 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter to help Oklahoma City beat Sacramento.

Jackson scored eight points in the final 2:17, going 6 of 7 from the free throw line.

Jeremy Lamb scored 17 points, Serge Ibaka had 14 points, nine rebounds and four blocks, and Sebastian Telfair added 14 points for the Thunder (2-5). Though struggling without injured stars Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, they improved to 2-1 at home.

Rudy Gay had 23 points, 10 rebounds and six assists, and DeMarcus Cousins and Ben McLemore each added 16 points for the Kings (5-2).

JAZZ 97, PISTONS 96

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Gordon Hayward scored 17 points, including four in the final 2 minutes, Derrick Favors added a double-double and Utah overcame a double-digit, second-half deficit to beat Detroit.

Brandon Jennings, who had 23 points, missed a floater from the free-throw line that could have given the Pistons the victory.

Favors finished with 16 points and 12 rebounds for Utah, while Enes Kanter had 14 points and 11 boards.
