Guard Kyle Korver, who had 16 points, put the Hawks ahead on a 3-pointer with 1:20 left in the fourth quarter, but Lowery scored on a drive with 8.1 seconds left to send the game into overtime at 106-all.

DeRozan and Lowery combined for Toronto’s final 19 points in regulation.

Teague, who had five assists, was 11 of 18 from the floor and 11 of 11 from the foul line as he topped 30 points for the third time this season.

Center Jonas Valanciunas had 16 points for Toronto but did not play after the third quarter because of lower back issues.

The Hawks (31-35) made just three of their first 16 shots from the field while falling behind 22-9 after eight minutes. The Raptors (37-29) led 26-17 at the end of the first quarter thanks to 11 points from Valanciunas.

Atlanta took its first lead of the game with 1:35 remaining in the second quarter on two free throws by center Pero Antic and was up by five before Raptors forward Steve Novak hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to send the teams into halftime tied at 49.

Teague scored 15 first-half points for the Hawks, 12 of them coming in the second quarter. DeRoza had 12 points at the break, eight of them in the second quarter.

The Hawks had a buzzer-beating 3-pointer themselves at the end of the third quarter, with rookie guard Dennis Schroder’s trey giving them an 80-78 lead. Millsap had 10 points in the quarter.
