The Atlanta Hawks bounced back from their disappointing season opener with a 112-101 win over the New York Knicks on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Jeff Teague was in All-Star form on Thursday, as he finished with 23 points on 7-for-12 shooting from the field and also tallied eight assists and four rebounds for the Hawks.

On the other hand, Carmelo Anthony led the Knicks with 25 points and seven rebounds to go along with three assists and three steals, but the All-Star forward shot just 10-for-27 from the field, including a 0-for-7 clip from the three-point region.

Rookie Kristaps Porzingis had 10 points and eight rebounds, and had a highlight play during the game, when he had a steal that led to a fastbreak dunk after eluding Millsap with a spin move.
