Tuesday's NBA Capsules

Games played on Dec. 2, 2014

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - Stephen Curry made a go-ahead 3-pointer with 2.2 seconds remaining, and the Golden State Warriors beat the Orlando Magic 98-97 on Tuesday night for their 10th straight win.

In the most dramatic finish in their streak to date, Curry sprinted up court and lost Tobias Harris with some crafty dribbling before pulling up to swish the shot. Curry shook his shoulders and pounded his chest as the announced sellout crowd of 19,596 roared at noisy Oracle Arena.

Draymond Green deflected Kyle O'Quinn's pass to Harris on Orlando's last possession.

Curry finished with 22 points as Golden State rallied from nine points down in the final four minutes.

The Warriors (15-2) extended the best start in franchise history and moved within one game of matching the team record for consecutive wins set in the 1971-72 season.

Victor Oladipo scored 27 points in a disappointing collapse for the young Magic.

MAVERICKS 132, BULLS 129, 2OT

CHICAGO (AP) - Monta Ellis hit three foul shots for Dallas with 1.2 seconds left in the fourth quarter, and then made a go-ahead 3-pointer late in the second overtime.

Ellis finished with 38 points, including his trio of foul shots that made it 108-all. He was fouled by Kirk Hinrich soon after crossing half-court.

Chicago's Derrick Rose banked in a 3-point at the overtime buzzer to force double OT.

Ellis' 3 put the Mavericks up 130-129, and Chandler Parsons added two foul shots. Rose missed a 3-point try as time expired.

Dirk Nowitzki had 22 points on 8-for-22 shooting in Dallas' fourth consecutive win.

Pau Gasol led the Bulls with 29 points and 14 rebounds.

PELICANS 112, THUNDER 104

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Reigning NBA MVP Kevin Durant returned from a foot injury and scored 27 points in his season debut for Oklahoma City, but Tyreke Evans powered the Pelicans to the win.

Durant played nearly 30 minutes, looking healthy whether he was throwing down a driving, two-handed dunk or snapping off one of his three 3-pointers.

Evans scored 15 of his 30 points in the fourth quarter. Anthony Davis had 25 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks for the Pelicans.

Russell Westbrook, in his second game back from a hand injury for the Thunder, scored 21.

The Raptors, playing their second consecutive game without guard DeMar DeRozan, led by as much as 15 but were clinging to a 111-107 advantage late in the fourth quarter when Lowry made a 20-foot jumper.

Miller, who wasn't used by coach David Blatt in the previous three games, made two 3-pointers, grabbed seven rebounds and had a key block in 18 minutes - all in the second half.

TRAIL BLAZERS 105, NUGGETS 103

DENVER (AP) - LaMarcus Aldridge scored a season-high 39 points and set up the winning basket on a pass inside to Robin Lopez with 1.3 seconds left, helping Portland rally for the win.

Aldridge received an in-bounds pass and dished it to Lopez, who sealed off J.J. Hickson with his hip for an easy layup.

Danilo Gallinari's 3-pointer at the buzzer was well short as the Blazers won their seventh straight over Denver.

Aldridge also had 11 rebounds for his fifth double-double in six games. Damian Lillard scored 17 points, and Wesley Matthews added 15.

Ty Lawson led Denver with 24 points and 13 assists on the second night of a back-to-back.
