Kyle Lowry makes the impossible happen.

With forward Solomon Hill draped all over him near the New Orleans Pelicans' bench Tuesday night, Lowry put up his biggest bucket of the game by connecting on a jumper fading into the first few rows with the shot clock expiring to put the Toronto Raptors up by two with 4.3 seconds remaining in overtime.

Toronto held on to win the game, 108-106, with Lowry finishing with a double-double of 33 points and 10 assists in 44 minutes of action. It also marks the first time in his career he's scored 30 or more in three straight outings.

With the victory, the Raptors improve to 30-19 on the season and move to within half a game of the Boston Celtics for the No. 2 seed in the East.
