CHICAGO (AP) Tony Douglas scored a career-high 30 points, and the New York Knicks made 16 of 24 3-point attempts in a 120-112 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Thursday night.
It was an astounding display from the outside for the Knicks after they hit just 32.6 percent over the first three games. Leading the charge was Douglas, who made 5 of 9 but he had plenty of help.
Danilo Gallinari hit four 3s without a miss and finished with 24 points - all but three in the first half as the Knicks took a 21-point lead in going up 70-52 at halftime.
Raymond Felton was 4 of 6 from long range and finished with 20 points and 10 assists for the Knicks.
Derrick Rose had 24 points and 14 assists for the Bulls, but sat out the final 9:31.
