MIAMI — Dwyane Wade scored 46 points, 15 of them coming in a dramatic 19-0 spurt that erased a huge deficit in the final nine minutes and carried the Miami Heat to a 120-115 win over the New York Knicks on Saturday night.
He tied a franchise record with 24 points in the fourth quarter, plus added 10 assists. Jermaine O'Neal scored 18 points and Jamario Moon added 17 for the Heat.
Nate Robinson led the Knicks with 29 points off the bench, but missed the 3-pointer that would have tied it in the final seconds. Larry Hughes and Chris Duhon each scored 19 and David Lee had an 18-point, 13-rebound night for New York.
MAGIC 106, 76ERS 100: At Philadelphia, Rashard Lewis and Hedo Turkoglu scored 23 points each and the Magic tied a franchise record with 37 3-point tries in their comeback win. Courtney Lee contributed 18 points, Dwight Howard added 12 and Rafer Alston had 11 for the Magic (43-16), who improved to 21-9 on the road, the third-best record in the NBA. Andre Miller had 23 points, eight rebounds and seven assists for the Sixers.
BULLS 105, ROCKETS 102: At Chicago, Derrick Rose scored 16 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter, and the Bulls rallied from a 17-point deficit with six minutes left to beat Houston. The Bulls outscored the Rockets 23-3 down the stretch to break the Rockets' season-high six-game win streak. Ron Artest scored a season-best 32 points to lead the Rockets.
THUNDER 99, GRIZZLIES 92: At Memphis, Tenn., Jeff Green had 27 points and 10 rebounds, Russell Westbrook added 25 points and the Thunder snapped a seven-game losing streak. The Thunder won despite playing without Kevin Durant, the league's fourth-leading scorer, who suffered a right ankle sprain in Friday's loss to Dallas. Thabo Sefolosha, playing only his fourth game for Oklahoma City, had season-highs of 15 points and 11 rebounds. Rudy Gay scored 20 points to lead Memphis, which lost its seventh straight.
