NEWARK, N.J., April 11 (UPI) -- D.J. Augustin canned an 18-foot jumper with 1.1 seconds remaining Monday, lifting the Charlotte Bobcats to a 105-103 victory over New Jersey.

Augustin's game-winner came 9 seconds after Sasha Vujacic connected on a 3-pointer to forge a 103-103 tie, capping a fourth-quarter New Jersey comeback in which the Nets had erased an eight-point deficit.

Brook Lopez pumped in 31 points, going 12-of-23 from the field for New Jersey.
