NBA: Toronto 93, Charlotte 86

A 39-point performance by Chris Bosh Wednesday allowed Toronto to fight off Charlotte 93-86.

Bosh hit 75 percent of his shots from the field and missed just once in 10 tries from the foul line. Toronto halted a two-game skid and dealt the Bobcats their fifth loss in six games.

Charlotte was within a point inside the 4-minute mark, but a jumper by Bosh slowed down the Bobcats' comeback bid and a jumper by Jose Calderon with 30.8 seconds left boosted the Raptors' lead to seven.

Joey Graham added a season-best 17 for Toronto.

Gerald Wallace led Charlotte with 23 and Jared Dudley equaled his best effort of the year with 13.

Toronto made six three-point shots, extending its NBA record to 793 straight games with at least one field goal from beyond the arc.
