Alston had missed his last 23 shots over three games before his layup sparked a 15-2 run in the third quarter. He made his next six shots as Toronto outscored Golden State 36-17 in the third quarter and went on its biggest win of the season.

Bosh recorded his fourth straight double-double for the Raptors, who are 5-6 since trading Vince Carter to New Jersey on Dec. 17.

Clifford Robinson had 18 points for the Warriors, who have lost five straight without leading scorer Jason Richardson (sprained left ankle).

Morris Peterson had 21 points and Alston added 15 for the Raptors, who led by as many as 30 points.

Bosh had grabbed 16 rebounds in a game twice.

Alston's 3-pointer gave Toronto a 78-59 lead with 25 seconds left in the third, and consecutive 3-pointers by Matt Bonner and Jalen Rose made it 96-73 with 6:38 left.

Rose's 3-pointer with 3:12 remaining made it 106-77.
