Knicks Minutes Edge Fire In Overtime

Basketball Betting Lines

They had six players score in double figures, getting 14 points from Wesley Matthews, 13 points and 16 rebounds from LaMarcus Aldridge and 11 and 10 points from Raymond Felton and Craig Smith.

 

The Kings fell to 3-6 so far during a stretch where they play 10 of their 12 games on the road.

 

Aldridge had five points during the burst and Wallace scored the last four on back-to-back layups -- he got a steal in between them to make it 46-31 inside three minutes.

 

"We did try to compete throughout the game but the second quarter got out of hand for us," said Sacramento coach Keith Smart. "We did a better job in the second half."

 

It was 74-56 after the third quarter and reached a game-high 22 on Crawford's runner early in the fourth.

Knicks superstar Carmelo Anthony squared off against his former team for the first time since being traded to the Big Apple last February and struggled from a shooting standpoint (10-for-30), but scored a team-best 25 points and 10 rebounds and sent the game into overtime on a jumper at the end of regulation. Landry Fields and Iman Shumpert both netted 18 points and Amare Stoudemire had 12 and 11 boards for the Knicks, who went 0-4 on the homestand and sit third in the Atlantic Division behind the 76ers and Celtics.

 

"We're going to win a lot of games if we can keep this intensity and this pace," Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni said. "Obviously, we still have some things to work through, but it's a step in the right direction."

 

Stoudemire's numbers have dropped over the past few games and the Knicks could use a little more help from the talented big man. He said after the loss to the Nuggets that it's not about the numbers, but winning.

 

Rookie Kemba Walker registered 16 points, six boards and four assists, while Gerald Henderson had 15 points and Derrick Brown and Bismack Biyombo both scored 11 points in defeat.

 

Bobcats guard D.J. Augustin suffered a small fracture in his right big toe and will miss Tuesday's game. Augustin had two assists and one rebound in less than eight minutes of action.

 

Henderson has scored in double figures in five straight games, including three games of 20 points or more. He is averaging 20.4 points on .552 shooting over that stretch. Walker has scored in double figures in five of his last six games, averaging 14.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.0 steals in that span. Byron Mullens had two points the last time out, but is averaging 13.8 points per game in his previous eight.
