TORONTO (AP) — Andrea Bargnani scored 30 points, DeMar DeRozan had 20 and the Toronto Raptors snapped a 13-game losing streak Friday, beating the Minnesota Timberwolves 111-100.
Amir Johnson had 19 points and 12 rebounds, Sonny Weems scored 16 and Jose Calderon tied his career-high with 19 assists as the Raptors won for the first time since a home victory over Sacramento on Jan. 2.
Trey Johnson scored 10 points for Toronto, which has won seven straight home games against Minnesota and nine of the past 10. The Timberwolves, 2-23 away from home this season, lost their sixth straight on the road.
Toronto had not dropped more than 13 in a row since a franchise-worst 17-game skid between Nov. 6 and Dec. 9, 1997. The Raptors have had two other 13-game losing streaks, one in 1998 and another in 2002.
Selected to All-Star game earlier in the day, Minnesota’s Kevin Love had 20 points and 15 rebounds for his 35th straight double-double.
