The Raptors rallied to beat Brooklyn on Tuesday night for their second win over the struggling Nets in two days.
Instead, eighth-place Brooklyn split its season series with Toronto and lost ground to the Raptors, who are three games ahead in seventh place in the Eastern Conference.
Kyrie Irving, Ben Simmons and Joe Harris were all out for the Nets, while center Andre Drummond sat because of a sore left knee. Drummond's injury is not considered serious, assistant coach Jacque Vaughn said. Aldridge said he's not concerned with how teams around the Nets perform in the final weeks of the season.
Curry's 3-pointer with 50 seconds remaining tied it at 103, but he fouled Trent at the other end and the Toronto guard broke the tie by making a pair of free throws with 30 seconds to go.
