Marshall, Raptors rain 3-pointers on 76ers
Toronto connects on 21 of 34 treys for their 18-point victory
Marshall was 12-for-19 from 3-point range and finished with a career-high 38 points to help the Raptors set a franchise record for points.
The Raptors, 21-for-34 from 3-point range, broke the previous NBA mark of 19 3-pointers set by Atlanta in a victory in Dallas on Dec. 17, 1996.
The 76ers repeatedly left Marshall open in the corner as Marshall fell one short of breaking the record set by Kobe Bryant for the Los Angeles Lakers against Seattle on Jan. 7, 2003. The 11-year veteran tried to surpass Bryant's record in the final 3 minutes, but one attempt rimmed in and out and he missed another.
Marshall left to a standing ovation with 17.5 seconds left. His previous career high for points was 37 against Milwaukee on Feb. 23, 2000.
Allen Iverson had 32 points for the 76ers.
MAVERICKS 102, TIMBERWOLVES 93: At Minneapolis, Jason Terry scored 12 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter and dished out 12 assists for the Dallas Mavericks, who pulled away from the Minnesota Timberwolves in a 102-93 victory Sunday.
Dirk Nowitzki added 21 points and 10 rebounds, while reserve Marquis Daniels scored 11 of his 16 points in the fourth, and Josh Howard finished with 15 points. Dallas went 12-for-13 from the free throw line in the final period after going 8-for-16 over the first three.
Kevin Garnett finished with 24 points, 13 rebounds and six assists for the Timberwolves, while Trenton Hassell had 19 points and eight rebounds.

Reserve Mike James added 20 points and Yao Ming scored 17 as Houston ended an 11-game losing streak in Sacramento. The Rockets hadn't won in Arco Arena since a 107-93 victory on March 28, 1999.
Houston's last four wins have come against four of the best five teams in the Western Conference — Dallas, Seattle, Phoenix and Sacramento.
Peja Stojakovic had 21 points and Cuttino Mobley added 20 as the Kings had their three-game winning streak snapped.
