James Harden had 31 points and 10 assists, Jordan Miller added 19 points and six assists and the Kawhi-less Clippers extended their winning streak to five games by beating the Toronto Raptors, 121-117 in overtime, on Friday night. Ivica Zubac had 16 points and 14 rebounds, Cam Christie scored 16 points and Kris Dunn had 15 as the Clippers won for the 12th time in 14 games since starting the season 6-21. Leonard missed his team’s lone regular-season visit to Toronto because of a sprained right ankle. Leonard, who has been averaging more than 30 points per game during the Clippers’ turnaround, won the 2019 NBA championship with the Raptors.

Toronto’s Scottie Barnes responded with a jumper before Miller came back with a 3-pointer with 3:06 left in overtime to give the Clippers a five-point lead. Barnes cut the lead to one with a layup with 55 seconds left, before Harden answered with an 11-foot jumper. Sanders made one of two free throws with seven seconds left to account for the final margin. The Clippers finished the game on a 20-8 surge. Harden shot 10 for 27 from the field and finished 2 for 15 from 3-point range, but he went 9 for 10 at the free-throw line to lead the Clippers’ 26-for-30 effort at the foul line. Barnes scored 24 points and Brandon Ingram had 19 to lead the Raptors, who lost for just the second time in 21 games when leading after three quarters. Toronto’s Jamal Shead had 15 points and a career-high 13 assists. Ochai Agbaji and Gradey Dick each scored 15 points and Sandro Mamukelashvili had 13.

Zubac returned after sitting out Wednesday’s home win over Washington because of a sprained left ankle. Forward John Collins listed as available, but Coach Tyronn Lue said he was held out as a precaution with a soft tissue injury.
