TORONTO, Feb. 11 (UPI) -- Manu Ginobilihad's 34 points and 15 rebounds Monday carried the San Antonio Spurs to a 93-88 victory over the Toronto Raptors.

Tim Duncan backed him up with 22 points and 13 rebounds for his 30th double-double of the season.

Jose Calderon had 27 points and six assists in a losing effort. Chris Bosh had just 11 points and eight rebounds.

It was announced Monday that Raptors Coach Sam Mitchell was taking a leave of absence to fly home to Atlanta following the death of his father-in-law. Mitchell may rejoin the team for Wednesday's game against New Jersey, but will definitely return after the All-Star break. Assistant Coach Mike Evans served as head coach for Monday's game.
