THE visiting Atlanta Hawks won their first game at Dallas in six attempts, beating the Mavericks 80-75 in a tight NBA game yesterday.

In Portland, Oregon, Brandon Roy scored 28 points and the winning basket to help Portland beat Houston.

Roy scored on a driving layup with 3 seconds left, and Houston's Aaron Brooks missed on the other end to give Portland a victory that was tarnished by the loss of center Greg Oden to a freak injury in the first quarter.

Oden fractured his left kneecap while jumping to defend Brooks. The former No. 1 draft pick will undergo surgery and is expected to miss the rest of the season. Play was stopped for 7 minutes while the 7-footer was tended to.

Andre Miller had 16 of his 24 points in the third quarter for the Blazers, who rallied from a 15-point deficit to snap a three-game losing streak.

Carl Landry led Houston with 23 points.

Suns 115, Kings 107

Bocats 106, 76ers 105

In Charlotte, North Carolina, Raymond Felton's driving layup with 5 seconds left capped a late comeback as Charlotte edged slumping Philadelphia.

A night after the Bobcats embarrassingly lost to the previously winless New Jersey, they appeared ready to hand the 76ers their first win in more than two weeks.

But Boris Diaw hit a 3-pointer and a scoop shot in a late run, and Felton beat a screen and sank the go-ahead basket.

Andre Iguodala missed a fadeaway at the buzzer for the 76ers, who blew a 10-point fourth-quarter lead in their ninth straight loss.
