MILWAUKEE, Feb. 12 (UPI) -- Jason Richardson drained four of his nine 3-pointers late in the game Saturday, boosting the Orlando Magic past Milwaukee 99-94.

Richardson went 9-of-11 from long range -- the second-most treys ever recorded in a Magic game -- and finished with 31 points as Orlando won for the fifth time in seven contests.

Only Dennis Scott has made more 3-pointers in a single game in Magic history, canning 11 treys in an April 1996 contest.

Hedo Turkoglu pumped in 19 points, and Dwight Howard added 11 and 14 rebounds for the Magic.

Drew Gooden put in 21 points and grabbed eight rebounds, while Ersan Ilyasova came up with 17 and 16 for Milwaukee.
