NBA: Toronto 95, Oklahoma City 93

OKLAHOMA CITY, March 20 (UPI) -- Amir Johnson made a layup with 2 seconds remaining Sunday to lift Toronto past Oklahoma City 95-93.

The Thunder had a six-game winning streak snapped and they lost at home for just the second time in six weeks. The other home setback during that stretch came against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Oklahoma City came back from a six-point deficit in the fourth quarter to take a three-point lead, but Toronto's Leandro Barbosa hit a shot from beyond the arc to tie it with 39 seconds to play.

Russell Westbrook then missed a layup attempt for Oklahoma City. DeMar DeRozan grabbed the rebound and threw it ahead to Johnson for the go-ahead score.

The Thunder's Kevin Durant missed a turnaround jumper with a second to go that would have forced overtime.

Andrea Bargnani led the Raptors with 23 points and Barbosa had 19 off the bench. It was Toronto's second straight win.

Westbrook had 22 for Oklahoma City. Durant scored 20, which was eight points below his league-leading average.
