NBA ROUNDUP Friday's games

Magic 104, Knicks 98
NEW YORK -- Cuttino Mobley scored 34 points in his second game back from a groin injury and made two key hustle plays down the stretch to lead Orlando past New York. In a matchup of first-place teams, Orlando's guards were better than New York's at the key moments. Mobley had an offensive rebound and a steal off an inbounds pass during the final 45 seconds to help snap New York's six-game home winning streak. Steve Francis had 26 points, six assists, seven rebounds and four steals. Stephon Marbury led New York with 28 points, but missed a pair of free throws that would have given the Knicks the lead with 47 seconds left. Jamal Crawford added 23 points.
Wizards 114, Hawks 90
ATLANTA -- Larry Hughes scored 19 points and Juan Dixon added 17, and Washington went four games over .500 for the first time in almost three years. The Hawks' eighth straight loss left them with their worst record (2-13) after 15 games since moving to Atlanta in 1968. Antoine Walker had 26 points for the Hawks.
Celtics 91, Raptors 89
BOSTON -- Gary Payton saved his biggest contribution for last, going scoreless for the first time in Boston but stealing the ball in the final seconds to help the Celtics win. Mark Blount, who had 22 points, hit the go-ahead basket with 34 seconds left. Paul Pierce scored 20 for the Celtics. Jalen Rose had 19 points for the Raptors.
Grizzlies 94, 76ers 86
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Pau Gasol had 34 points and 15 rebounds to lead Memphis in the Grizzlies' first game under new coach Mike Fratello. Gasol hit 12 of 19 shots from the field as Memphis ended a week of coaching disarray and a five-game losing streak. Philadelphia lost its third straight, and has lost six straight road games. Mike Miller added 19 points for Memphis. Allen Iverson had 25 points and seven steals for the Sixers.
Heat 105, Bulls 81
CHICAGO -- Reserve Christian Laettner scored 23 points, -- Eddie Jones 21 and Shaquille O'Neal 18 for Miami. When O'Neal went to the bench with his fourth foul at the 3:29 mark of the third quarter, the Heat had a 72-64 lead. Instead of struggling, they went on a 14-4 run -- including 10 straight -- to pull away. Kirk Hinrich scored 17 points and rookie Chris Duhon added a career-high 15 for the Bulls, now 2-11.
Spurs 80, Pistons 77
SAN ANTONIO -- Ben Wallace's return from a six-game suspension couldn't help Detroit overcome San Antonio, with Tony Parker scoring 20 points and Brent Barry hitting two critical free throws in the final seconds for the Spurs. Wallace was back in the lineup after his suspension for his role in last month's brawl with the Indiana Pacers and fans. Wallace played 33 minutes but finished with five points on 2-of-9 shooting with nine rebounds. Tim Duncan added 18 points and 18 rebounds.
Timberwolves 97, Suns 93
PHOENIX -- Kevin Garnett had 23 points, 19 rebounds and eight assists, and the Minnesota Timberwolves used a tough defense to snap the Phoenix Suns' nine-game winning streak 97-93 on Friday night. Sam Cassell scored 11 of his 19 points in the fourth quarter to help the Timberwolves win their fourth in a row and hand the Suns just their third defeat in 16 games. Garnett had 11 offensive boards, and has 65 rebounds in the last four games. Latrell Sprewell scored 22, including 4-of-5 3-pointers, and Wally Szczerbiak added 14 points for Minnesota, 3-0 on a four-game road trip. Eddie Griffin had 14 rebounds for the Timberwolves.
Amare Stoudemire had 28 points but only four rebounds, Shawn Marion 21 points and 18 rebounds and Steve Nash 22 points and eight assists for the Suns, who were 2-for-18 from 3-point range.
