MIAMI, Jan. 22 (UPI) -- LeBron James fired in 38 points and Mike Miller had 32 for Miami Saturday and the Heat raced to a 120-103 win over the Toronto Raptors.

James also had 11 rebounds, while Miller, who was 6-of-11 from 3-point range, had 10.

The Heat, who had lost four in a row going in, manufactured the impressive win despite not having Chris Bosh (ankle) and Dwyane Wade (migraine).

James Jones and Eddie House helped pick up the pace with 15 and 13 points, respectively.

Toronto got 30 points from DeMar DeRozan and 28 from Andrea Bargnani added 28 for Toronto in losing for the eighth time in 10 games.

The Raptors were out of this one most of the way, and when they clawed back to within 99-92 with 6:27 left on a Bargnani trey, James responded with a layup and 3-point conversion that gave the Heat a double-digit lead they didn't give back.
