NEW YORK, Feb. 23 (UPI) -- Nate Robinson scored 32 of his season-high 41 points in the second half Monday night to lead the New York Knicks to a 123-119 victory over Indiana.

Robinson, who had a steal and go-ahead layup with 26.1 seconds left, tied the Knicks record for most points off the bench, and also had eight rebounds as the Knicks won for the third time in their last four games.

Al Harrington added 27 points and seven rebounds for New York, which beat Indiana for just the third time in the last 11 meetings. David Lee had 20 points and 13 rebounds.

Jarrett Jack scored a season-best 33 points and Marquis Daniels added 28 for Indiana, which has lost 11 of its last 12 road games. Troy Murphy had 19 points and 21 rebounds for the Pacers, who were without their three top scorers this season -- as Danny Granger (torn tendon in right foot), Mike Dunleavy (sore right knee) and T.J. Ford (flu) all missed the game.
