NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 7 (UPI) -- Chris Bosh scored 27 points and the Toronto Raptors hit 14 3-pointers Friday en route to a 107-90 road win at New Orleans.

The Raptors had four players in double figures and hit 14 of their 29 attempts from behind the arc.

"We just made shots," said Jose Calderon, who tallied 16 points. "Some days you make them and other days the ball just doesn't want to go in."

Chris Paul had 21 points to lead the Hornets. Bobby Brown scored 16 and David West 14.

The Raptors trailed 51-49 at halftime but came out swinging in the third quarter with a 13-0 run that gave them a 64-56 lead five minutes into the period. They pulled ahead 83-65 heading into the fourth quarter and at one point led 95-71 after a 3-pointer by Antoine Wright.
