TORONTO (AP) --- Scottie Barnes scored 17 points, Ja'Kobe Walter added a
season-high 16 and the Toronto Raptors won for the 11th time in 12 games,
beating the Brooklyn Nets 119-109 on Sunday night.
Brandon Ingram had 14 points and Immanuel Quickley scored eight of his 13 in
the fourth quarter to help Toronto extend its winning streak to seven.
Toronto's RJ Barrett scored 16 points before leaving midway through the third
because of a sprained right knee. Barrett landed awkwardly after his steal led
to a fast break dunk.
Brooklyn's Tyrese Martin scored a season-high 26 points. Michael Porter Jr. had
25 and Noah Clowney added 22.
Nic Claxton had 10 points and 11 rebounds for the Nets. Claxton had his first
career triple-double in Friday night in a win at Boston.
Toronto's Sandro Mamukelashvili scored 12 points in his first start of the
season, Gradey Dick also scored 12 points and Jamal Shead had 11.
Porter's layup with 4:24 left in the fourth tied it at 104, but Quickley made
two 3-pointers as Toronto replied with a 10-0 run over the next 2 1/2 minutes.
Ingram reached 10,000 career points with a 3 in the second, his only basket of
the period. Toronto led 65-58 at the intermission.
Mamukelashvili started for center Jakob Poeltl, who sat because of a sore lower
back. Rookie Collin Murray-Boyles returned after missing two games because of a
sore right knee.
