THE Toronto Raptors eked out a 106-105 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers after Kobe Bryant missed a three-pointer just before the buzzer on Sunday.
Hedo Turkoglu made two free throws with 1.2 seconds to play as the Raptors scored the game's final five points to claim a ninth win in their last 10 home games.
"I always have confidence," Turkoglu told reporters.
"I know I have been struggling lately shooting the ball but I don't let it get to me. I try to put those behind and try to still play my game."
Down 101-105 with less than two minutes to play, Toronto turned to Andrea Bargnani for a field goal and free throw before Turkoglu delivered the winning free throws. Bargnani wound up with 22 points with Chris Bosh and Jarrett Jack both scoring 18. Turkoglu had nine. Marco Belinelli added 15 points.
Bryant led the Lakers with a game-high 27 points despite playing with a broken right index finger. He also had 16 rebounds and nine assists but will be disappointed to have missed his most imprtant shot of the game as time expired.
He fell one assist shy of his first triple-double of the season. Bryant, who shot 11 for 24, has 16 career triple-doubles.
Pau Gasol scored 22 points, Andrew Bynum had 21 and Jordan Farmar 17 for the Lakers.
Elsewhere in the National Basketball Association, it was: Mavericks 128, Knicks 78; and Clippers 92, Wizards 78.
In Toronto, Los Angeles led by 10 points in the third quarter before the Raptors rallied.
The win was the 15th in 21 home games for the Raptors this season. "We think we're playing pretty well and we're confident," coach Jay Triano said.
