TORONTO, Nov. 16 (UPI) -- Center Chris Bosh compiled 27 points and seven rebounds Sunday, powering the Toronto Raptors' 107-96 win over the Miami Heat.

The victory gave Toronto its fifth straight against Miami, after winning all four meetings last season.

A 27-18 fourth period secured the come-from-behind win after a 54-50 halftime deficit.

Point guard Will Solomon scored 15 points with 11 assists. Forward Andrea Bargnani had 12 points, four rebounds, and three assists, while three other players scored in double figures for the Raptors, winners in five of their last seven outings.

Guard Dwayne Wade led Miami with 29 points, eight assists and three rebounds, but sank just 13-of-31 shots.

Guard Daequan Cook had 16 points, four assists and three rebounds, while three others scored in double figures for the Heat, who have split their last six games.
