Carlos Boozer had 29 points and 18 rebounds and Nate Robinson made the go-ahead basket with 22 seconds left as the Chicago Bulls overcame a 16-point deficit to beat the Brooklyn Nets 92-90 on Thursday.
Jimmy Butler had 16 points and 10 rebounds, Luol Deng scored 18 points, and Robinson finished with 12 in New York as the Bulls shook off the absences of five key players to keep the Indiana Pacers from clinching the National Basketball Association Central Division title that Chicago has won the last two years.
Deron Williams had 30 points and 10 assists for the Nets.
Brook Lopez finished with 28 points but had a turnover and two misses in the final minute, including a corner jumper that went in and out that would have forced overtime.
Chicago pulled into a tie for fifth place with Atlanta in the Eastern Conference and climbed within 1-1/2 games of the Nets for the No. 4 seed in the playoffs and home-court advantage in the first round.
And the Bulls did it without Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah, Taj Gibson, Richard Hamilton and Marco Belinelli.
The Denver Nuggets edged past the Dallas Mavericks 95-94 for their 19th straight home win, but they may have lost a vital member of their offense heading into the playoffs.
Italian star Danilo Gallinari's left knee buckled inward as he drove to the basket for a layup in the first half. He grabbed his knee and then sat down on the sideline, writhing in pain, before leaving in a wheelchair.
Gallinari is Denver's second-leading scorer at 16.3 points per game. Its top scorer, Ty Lawson (16.7) is also out indefinitely with a heel injury.
In the day's other game, it was: Thunder 100, Spurs 88.
