TORONTO — Romeo Langford scored 5 points and his Boston Celtics went back over .500 with a 109-97 road win in Toronto on Sunday evening.

The victory, in which Boston held the Raptors to 35 of 93 shooting (37.6 percent), snapped a modest 2-game losing streak for the Celtics.

Langford, a former New Albany and Indiana University star, went 1 for 5 from the field, but he made both of his free throw attempts and pulled down a season-high 8 rebounds 26 minutes off the Boston bench. The Celtics bench outscored Toronto’s 32-13 behind Jason Richardson’s 18 point, Enes Kanter’s 9 and Langford’s 5.

Marcus Smart led the Celtics with 21 points. Al Horford finished with 17, Jaylen Brown 16 and Grant Williams 15. Jayson Tatum, who’s averaging 24.3 points per game, had a rare cold shooting night with 8 points on 2 of 16 from the floor.

Horford had a game-high 11 boards and Kanter had 10.

Toronto led 26-24 when Langford hit his only field goal — a 3-pointer — with 28.4 left to go in the first period. The Celtics went on an 8-0 run to start the second and held a 54-51 advantage at the half.

The Raptors took a 71-70 lead on Fred Van Vleet’s 3 with 5:09 left in the third, but Boston closed the period on a 10-5 run to lead by 4 through three quarters.

The Celtics had a 1-point lead early in the fourth quarter before a Williams-led 9-0 run finished off Toronto.

The Raptors (9-12) were led by VanVleet, who had a game-best 27 points. He was 5 for 10 behind the 3-point line.

Langford and the Celtics look to go two games over .500 for the first time this season Wednesday when they host rival Philadelphia. That game can be seen on NBA TV.
