NEW YORK (AP) — Toney Douglas scored 22 points, and the New York Knicks won their fourth straight game, beating the Charlotte Bobcats 110-107 on Tuesday night in the opener of a home-and-home series.
Amare Stoudemire added 17 for the Knicks, who won the final three games on their road trip and kept rolling right through most of this one. They blew nearly all of a 16-point lead before holding on for their longest winning streak since taking four straight last Dec. 4-11.
Raymond Felton made the clinching free throws against his former team as New York put six players in double figures. The Knicks can get back to .500 with a victory at Charlotte on Wednesday.
D.J. Augustin, Felton’s replacement, scored 24 points for the Bobcats.
