* New Jersey 107, Miami 103 (OT): Vince Carter scored 31 points and the Nets overcame a seven-point deficit with 4:52 left in regulation before winning in overtime. New Jersey also overcame Dwyane Wade’s season-high 41 points for Miami (3-9 at home). Meanwhile, Heat backup center Alonzo Mourning had season-ending surgery for torn right knee tendons suffered Wednesday in an overtime loss at Atlanta. Mourning’s injury was first said to be a torn patellar tendon. But the team said that he also required surgery to repair a torn quadriceps tendon, which connects the kneecap to the lower thigh. Mourning, 37, has probably played his final game after saying before the season that this would be the last one in his 15-year career.

* at Denver 112, Houston 111 (2 OT): Anthony Carter made a floater in the lane with 0.8 seconds left in double overtime to lift the Nuggets. Carmelo Anthony scored 37 points and a career-high 16 rebounds, and Allen Iverson had 36 points and nine assists for Denver, which ended a two-game losing streak.

* at Cleveland 94, Lakers 90: The Lakers couldn’t overcome missing all eight of their shots in the final four minutes.
