Jeremy Lamb launched a buzzer-beater from 48 feet to help the Hornets stun the Raptors.
Kawhi Leonard had 28 points to top Toronto , who were playing just their third game of the season with a full complement of healthy players. Pascal Siakam added 23 points, while Marc Gasol had 17 for the Raptors, Fred VanVleet added 12, and Serge Ibaka chipped in with 10.
The game featured a Hornets team hoping to claw their way up into a playoff position, versus a Raptors squad hoping to build some momentum and chemistry among a roster that’s looked like a revolving door with injuries, trades, and Leonard’s load management. The Raptors sliced Charlotte’s lead to seven points on a big block by Powell that led to a VanVleet three, and finally brought the disgruntled Scotiabank Arena crowd to its feet. Back-to-back dunks by Siakam and Leonard highlighted a 12-0 Toronto run that made it a one-point game with 4:12 to play.
Charlotte ran and dog-piled Lamb in the corner of the floor. Raptors fans stood silent, mouths agape, before finally departing.
