Carter was 19 for 27 shooting and had 34 points in the second half with some of the most sizzling moves since he joined the Magic, who have won nine of their last 11 games.

Dwight Howard added 25 points and 12 rebounds, and Rashard Lewis finished with 18 points for Orlando. Peja Stojakovic had 29 points, and Darren Collison and David West added 27 points apiece for the Hornets, who have lost four of five since Chris Paul went down with an injured left knee.

In Los Angeles, Pau Gasol had 21 points and 19 rebounds to lead five players in double figures as the Los Angeles Lakers beat San Antonio 101-89 without injured Kobe Bryant and Andrew Bynum. Bryant missed his second consecutive game with a sore left ankle, while Bynum sat out with a bruised right hip.

In Oakland, California, Jason Terry scored a season-high 36 points, including the go-ahead 3-pointer, as Dallas rallied from a 14-point deficit to beat Golden State 127-117. Josh Howard and Drew Gooden also had season bests with 25 and 24 points respectively for the Mavericks. Jason Kidd added 17 points and 12 assists.
