nba roundup Sunday’s games


Pacers 115, Thunder 111

OKLAHOMA CITY

Jeff Teague scored eight of his 30 points in overtime and Indiana beat Oklahoma City for its first road victory of the season. Oklahoma City’s Russell Westbrook had his fifth triple-double of the season — as many as the rest of the NBA combined — with 31 points, 15 assists and 10 rebounds, but went 13 of 34 from the field. Teague matched his season scoring high and added nine assists and six steals. He hit two free throws with 4.6 seconds left in regulation to put the Pacers up three. Westbrook hit a 3-pointer with 2.4 seconds left to tie it for the Thunder and Glenn Robinson III missed a well-guarded 10-footer at the buzzer, forcing overtime. Teague’s 3-pointer in the first minute of overtime put Indiana ahead for good. With 1:09 left, he converted a three-point play to make it 113-107, and he hit two free throws with 19.1 seconds left for a 115-111 edge Six Pacers scored in double figures and two of them had double-doubles — Robinson with 16 points and 11 rebounds, and Thaddeus Young with 20 points and 11 rebounds. Myles Turner just missed another with 15 points and nine rebounds. Enes Kanter added 16 points for the Thunder.

Knicks 104, Hawks 94

NEW YORK

Carmelo Anthony matched his season high with 31 points and New York beat Atlanta for its fourth straight home victory. Kristaps Porzingis added 19 points and 11 rebounds. Dwight Howard had 18 points and 18 rebounds, but point guard Dennis Schroder missed all eight shots as the Hawks dropped their second straight following a six-game winning streak. Howard bounced back nicely after he was ejected for a flagrant foul Friday in the Hawks’ 100-96 loss in Charlotte, while Paul Millsap led Atlanta with 19 points and Kyle Korver scored 17. New York played without starting center Joakim Noah because of illness. Guards Derrick Rose and Courtney Lee each had 14 points, and Kyle O’Quinn, who replaced Noah, had eight points and eight rebounds.
