The Toronto Raptors ( 49 - 33 ) defeated the Charlotte Hornets ( 33 - 49 ) 92 - 87 on Wednesday at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto . The Raptors came into this matchup as the projected fourth seed for the Eastern Conference playoffs , but were looking to move up into the third seed , where the Chicago Bulls currently sit . The win here puts them in position to take that spot , but only as long as the Bulls lose their matchup against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday as well . If the Raptors finish as the fourth seed , they 'll play the Washington Wizards , but if they finish as the third seed , they 'll take on the Milwaukee Bucks . The Hornets have been eliminated from the playoffs so this loss marks an end to their season . The Raptors were the superior shooters in this game , going 49 percent from the field and 36 percent from the three - point line , while the Hornets went 42 percent from the floor and 36 percent from deep . After struggling with his shot recently , Kyle Lowry finally broke out of his slump and went off for a game - high of 26 points ( 8 - 15 FG , 6 - 9 3Pt , 4 - 4 FT ) , to go along with seven assists and three steals . He had combined to go just 13 - for - 46 from the field and 3 - for - 17 from the three - point line over his previous three games , so this was a much needed confidence booster heading into the playoffs . DeMar DeRozan had a solid showing in the win as well , posting 16 points ( 8 - 13 FG , 0 - 2 3Pt ) , six assists and two steals . He had to sit out of Tuesday 's game due to a groin injury , so it was good to see him come back and get a full games worth of work without any setbacks . Jonas Valanciunas and Terrence Ross were the other two Raptors in double figures . Valanciunas finished with 18 points ( 9 - 11 ) and five rebounds , while Ross added 13 points ( 5 - 15 FG , 3 - 13 3Pt ) and three assists . After combining to go just 3 - for - 10 from the field and 0 - for - 5 from the three - point line during Monday 's game against the Rockets , Gerald Henderson and Kemba Walker had much better performances this time around . Walker finished with 17 points ( 6 - 15 FG , 1 - 5 3Pt , 4 - 4 FT ) , four assists and three steals , while Henderson recorded 15 points ( 7 - 12 FG , 1 - 1 3Pt ) and three rebounds . Neither wanted to end their season as poorly as they played Monday , so they 'll be much happier with this performance despite taking the loss . The Hornets saw a nice contribution from their bench as well though , as Troy Daniels finished with a team - high of 24 points ( 7 - 15 FG , 6 - 13 3Pt , 4 - 4 FT ) over 29 minutes . the 24 points were a new season - high for the guard , who has received extra playing time due to the injuries that have taken a toll on this roster here at the end of the season . This marks the final regular season game for both teams .
