Knicks rout the Nuggets 142-103 as Denver guard Murray leaves with a sprained ankle‎

OG Anunoby scored 34 points to power the New York Knicks to a 142-103 win over the Denver Nuggets, who lost All-Star point guard Jamal Murray to a sprained ankle Friday night just when their starting lineup was back together. Josh Hart added 18 points and Karl-Anthony Towns had 19 points and 17 rebounds as the Knicks kicked off a five-game trip in resounding fashion, their starters taking the fourth quarter off to enjoy the rare rout. The 39-point home loss tied the Nuggets' record set against Chicago in 1998.
