    Chris Bosh poured in 36 points and added 11 rebounds as the Toronto Raptors used a fourth-quarter comeback to slip by the Sacramento Kings 115-104 at the Air Canada Centre on Sunday afternoon.

    The Raptors trailed 87-84 heading into the fourth but outscored the Kings 31-17, assisted by a 19-8 run to end the game.
