Anthony's 37 points lead Knicks to win over Wizards

Carmelo Anthony hit eight straight jumpers at one juncture to rack up 37 points and lead the Knicks to a riveting 117-110 victory over the previously unbeaten Wizards, who were playing their home opener.

Anthony had been in a shooting slump in the Knicks’ first two games, going 14 of 41 as he recovers from knee surgery. Anthony hit four free throws in the final 20.4 seconds left to seal the win, giving the Knicks a 2-1 record. He made 11 of 18 shots and 11 of 12 from the free-throw line.
