The New York Knicks are rolling again.

Jalen Brunson scored 23 points and Karl-Anthony Towns had 21 points with 16 rebounds as the Knicks beat the Milwaukee Bucks 117-85 on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden. It was New York's fourth straight win.

OG Anunoby made five 3-pointers and scored 19. The Knicks have won six of seven since an 0-3 start.

A second-quarter blowout

New York led by only three early in the second quarter. Then Anunoby and backup point guard Tyler Kolek combined for 10 straight points to make it 36-23.

Kolek scored again to spark another 10-0 run. Brunson and Anunoby closed the half with back-to-back 3-pointers. The Knicks went into the break up 58-34 after winning the quarter 32-13.

Milwaukee cut the lead to 85-72 after three quarters. Towns answered in the fourth. Two more 3-pointers from Anunoby pushed it to 106-78.

The bench does the heavy lifting

With a home game against Cleveland on Wednesday, no Knicks starter played 30 minutes. Kolek finished with 12 points. Andre Drummond grabbed 14 rebounds off the bench. Miles McBride scored eight. New York outscored Milwaukee by 39 points with him on the floor.

Forward Josh Hart missed his third straight game, this time with an illness. Coach Mike Brown said Hart's sore right ankle had healed enough that he likely would have played if he were not sick.

Bucks keep sliding

Jaime Jaquez Jr. scored 16 points and Ryan Rollins had 14 for Milwaukee. The Bucks have lost seven in a row and fell to 1-10.

They played without leading scorer Tyler Herro, who sat out for the first time this season with a bruised right knee. Milwaukee hosts the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday.
