PHOENIX, Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Michael Redd scored 17 points for Phoenix Saturday and the Suns bested Charlotte 95-89, handing the Bobcats their 11th straight loss.

Redd led the Suns in scoring in his first start of the season and Robin Lopez netted 11 of his 13 points down the stretch as Phoenix snapped a four-game streak against Charlotte.

Marcin Gortat helped the Suns with 12 points and 12 rebounds.

The struggling Bobcats, meanwhile, remained mired in the team's longest skid since a franchise-record 13-games in 2006.

Reggie Williams amassed 21 points, seven boards and six assists, while Kemba Walker provided 22 points in Charlotte's latest setback.

Bismack Biyombo notched a double-double of 11 points and 12 rebounds in his first NBA start for the Bobcats.
