(12-31) 14:32 PST Charlotte, N.C. (AP) --

Monta Ellis scored 25 points and the Golden State Warriors held off a late rally to beat the Charlotte Bobcats 96-95 on Friday.

Stephen Curry added 24 points and Dorell Wright 17 for the Warriors, who led by as many as 11 points midway through the third quarter and held a six-point lead with 1:20 remaining.

Stephen Jackson scored 22 points for the Bobcats, but missed a 3-pointer with 2 seconds remaining that could have given Charlotte its third consecutive win under interim head coach Paul Silas.

Gerald Wallace added 20 points, D.J. Augustin 12 and Boris Diaw 10 points for the Bobcats.
