NBA ROUNDUP \ Saturday’s other games

Knicks 122, Wizards 117

NEW YORK — Quentin Richardson had 34 points and 12 rebounds in one of his best games since coming to New York, and the short-handed Knicks held on to beat Washington. Richardson made seven 3-pointers, two shy of the franchise record, and fell a point shy of his highest-scoring game since the Knicks acquired him from Phoenix in June 2005. He scored 35 points against the Wizards on Jan. 17, 2007. Nate Robinson had a season-high 27 points, Wilson Chandler added 23, and David Lee had 22 points and 12 rebounds to help the Knicks snap a three-game losing streak. Antawn Jamison had 29 points and 13 rebounds for the Wizards, who dropped their fifth straight and fell to 1-10, their worst since the 1966 Baltimore Bullets also opened 1-10. Caron Butler finished with 23 points, 19 in the second half.

Rockets 100, Magic 95

ORLANDO, Fla. — Yao Ming had 22 points and 13 rebounds to help Houston win for the fourth time in five games and snap Orlando’s winning streak at five games. Tracy McGrady and Rafter Alston added 17 apiece for Houston. Jameer Nelson led Orlando with 21 points and six assists, and Rashard Lewis added 18 points, but the Magic shot only 40.7 percent and All-Star center Dwight Howard wasn’t much of a factor because of foul problems. He finished with 13 points and nine rebounds.

Heat 109, Pacers 100

MIAMI — Dwyane Wade shook off flu-like symptoms to score 38 points, and Miami rallied from 15 points down to beat Indiana. Shawn Marion had 18 points and nine rebounds, and Michael Beasley scored 14 of his 17 points in the second half for Miami. Udonis Haslem added 16 points. Marquis Daniels scored 25 points, and Danny Granger added 23 for the Pacers.

Bucks 79, Bobcats 74

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Ramon Sessions scored 18 points and hit two clinching free throws with 13 seconds left for Milwaukee. Charlie Villanueva added 15 points and eight rebounds for Milwaukee, which overcame 21 turnovers to hand the struggling Bobcats their fourth straight loss.
