OG Anunoby scored 31 points and Mikal Bridges added 26 to lead the New York Knicks to a road victory over the Milwaukee Bucks 116-107 on Friday night.

New York, which has won three of its last four, got 14 points and 10 boards from Karl-Anthony Towns. Josh Hart added 13 points with 14 rebounds and eight assists.

Milwaukee has lost three straight and four of its last six. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way with 30 points while Kyle Kuzma and Ryan Rollins each added 20. The Bucks were without Damian Lillard, who is out indefinitely due to a blood clot in his calf.

New York started off hot, going on a 9-0 run and ending the opening quarter up 25-19. Delon Wright, who began the season with Milwaukee, started and scored 10 points in the first quarter.

The Knicks gained more separation in the second despite stronger shooting from Milwaukee, which shot 70.6 percent from the field in the period, as New York led 60-49 going into the break.

The Bucks shot 57.6 percent from the floor in the first half, led by 13 points from Antetokounmpo, 12 from Rollins and 11 from Kuzma. Bridges paced New York, which grabbed seven offensive boards and forced 10 turnovers resulting in 19 points.

The third quarter was one of spurts as the Bucks went on an 11-4 stretch to bring their deficit down to four, which would later be cut to two.

New York responded with a 12-6 run. Going into the fourth, the Knicks led 81-73 despite going 0-for-8 from 3-point range in the third quarter.

New York got on a roll to start the fourth and never looked back, as an 18-7 start to the period gave them a 99-80 lead with 8:27 left.

The Knicks have won five in a row over Milwaukee and swept the regular season series for the first time in 12 seasons. Nine points was the closest margin of the three games this season.
