ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 23 (UPI) -- Jermaine Taylor ignited a second-half comeback Wednesday that gave Sacramento an unexpected 111-105 decision over Orlando.

Taylor scored a career-best 21 points, helping bring the Kings just their 14th win of the campaign. Sacramento had lost by 20 points to Miami on the previous evening.

Beno Udrih added 18 points and 10 assists, and both Jason Thompson and Samuel Dalembert had 17 each for the Kings. Dalembert's hook shot with 3:22 to play put Sacramento in front for good after the Kings had come from 11 points behind in the third period.

Dwight Howard led Orlando with 31 points and 17 rebounds. The Magic had won four out of five heading into the All-Star break, but they made just 8-of-28 shots from 3-point range.

Topics: Jason Thompson, Jermaine Taylor, Samuel Dalembert
