Jaylen Brown tied a career high with 50 points, Derrick White added 29 and the sharp-shooting Boston Celtics earned a 146-115 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers, who saw their six-game winning streak end Saturday night at Inglewood, Calif.

Anfernee Simons scored 15 points and Jordan Walsh added 13 points with 13 rebounds as Boston went 4-1 on their road trip while improving to 12-3 since Nov. 30. The Celtics shot 55.2% from the floor as they matched their season high for points in a game.

Kawhi Leonard and John Collins each scored 22 points as the Clippers lost for the first time since Dec. 18 against the champion Oklahoma City Thunder. Los Angeles had doubled its victory total during the winning streak.

James Harden scored 18 points with 12 assists and Derrick Jones Jr. scored 19 for Los Angeles, which saw Ivica Zubac (ankle) return from a five-game absence to score four points in 21 minutes. Jones departed with 9:25 remaining in the game with a right leg injury.

Timberwolves 125, Heat 115

Anthony Edwards scored a game-high 33 points, and reserve Naz Reid added 29 points as Minnesota defeated host Miami. Edwards, who entered the night ranked eighth in the NBA in scoring average (29.1), made 10 of 19 shots from the floor.

The Timberwolves, who have won five of their past eight games, also got 23 points and 10 rebounds from Julius Randle. Rudy Gobert posted a double-double with 13 points and a game-high 12 rebounds.

The Heat, who had their four-game win streak snapped, were led by Norman Powell (21 points). Powell temporarily left the game in the second quarter due to right-leg soreness.

76ers 130, Knicks 119

Tyrese Maxey scored 36 points to highlight Philadelphia's road win over slumping New York.

Maxey finished 14 of 22 from the field (6 of 9 from 3-point range), while rookie VJ Edgecombe knocked down four 3-pointers in a strong 26-point performance. Joel Embiid added 26 points and 10 rebounds as the 76ers prevailed in the finale of a five-game road trip.

The Knicks matched a season high with their third straight loss despite 31 points from Jalen Brunson. Karl-Anthony Towns contributed 23 points and 14 rebounds for New York, while OG Anunoby notched 19 points for the hosts.

Raptors 134, Hawks 117

RJ Barrett scored a season-best 29 points and Brandon Ingram also scored 29 as Toronto defeated visiting Atlanta.

Scottie Barnes added 20 points, Sandro Mamukelashvili had a near-triple-double with 13 points, 12 rebounds and eight assists and Immanuel Quickley scored 15. The Raptors have won all three meetings against the Hawks so far this season.

Atlanta's Nickeil Alexander-Walker led all scorers with 31 points, Jalen Johnson finished with 30 points, nine assists and seven rebounds and Dyson Daniels added 20 points and 12 assists. But their efforts weren't enough without the services of Trae Young (quad), Kristaps Porzingis (return-to-competition conditioning) and Luke Kennard (back).

Trail Blazers 115, Spurs 110

Deni Avdija amassed a 29-point, 11-rebound, 10-assist triple-double that included a key 3-pointer in the final minute to help visiting Portland hold on for a win over short-handed San Antonio.

Both teams were playing the second game of a back-to-back, but it was the Trail Blazers who responded the best. Donovan Clingan finished with a career-high 24 points along with 10 rebounds, while Toumani Camara scored 20 points. Caleb Love had 16 off the bench as Portland won for the second consecutive game and for the fourth time in its past five contests.

Luke Kornet led the Spurs with 23 points on 10-of-12 shooting. Julian Champagnie added 20 points and 10 rebounds and De'Aaron Fox hit for 19 points. San Antonio played without star center Victor Wembanyama (left knee injury) for the second straight game and for the third contest in a row without starting guard Devin Vassell (adductor strain).

Warriors 123, Jazz 114

Stephen Curry scored 20 of his team-high 31 points in the third quarter and Golden State overcame a double-digit deficit and the ejection of Draymond Green for a triumph over Utah in San Francisco.

Jimmy Butler III and Quinten Post added 15 points apiece for the Warriors, who bounced back from a 37-point shellacking at home by the Oklahoma City Thunder one night earlier.

Lauri Markkanen led all scorers with 35 points for Utah, which led 58-48 with 2:25 left in the second quarter when Green received a pair of technical fouls and was ejected. Green, who rested on Friday against the Thunder, was disputing a non-call on what he thought was a 3-second violation on Utah's Kyle Filipowski.

Mavericks 110, Rockets 104

Anthony Davis scored 26 points, Max Christie shot 10-of-13 from the floor en route to 24 points and host Dallas capitalized on Alperen Sengun's injury to defeat Houston.

Sengun sprained his right ankle just one minute into the contest, sending the star center, who averages 22.6 points, 9.3 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game, to the locker room and out for the remainder of the game. Davis controlled the paint in Sengun's absence, grabbing 12 rebounds and notching five blocked shots.

Kevin Durant scored a game-high 34 points for Houston. Tari Eason and Amen Thompson both recorded double-doubles, with Eason finishing with 19 points and 10 rebounds and Thompson going for 20 points and 12 rebounds.
