 NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Rasual Butler scored a career-high 32 points, hitting seven 3-pointers, and the New Orleans Hornets snapped an eight-game losing streak with a 120-108 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night.
New Orleans hit 12 3-pointers in all, the last at the final buzzer when Butler heaved the ball at the hoop in celebration and it went in.
Butler shot well from the outset, hitting seven of his first 11 shots, including three from long range, to help the Hornets take a 63-49 lead at halftime.
