Tim Hardaway Jr. had 23 points and Jason Smith scored 20 with nine rebounds and five assists for the Knicks, who have won back-to-back games for the first time since late February.

Jeff Teague finished with 19 points and nine assists for Atlanta, but missed a potential game-tying floater in the lane with 9.3 seconds remaining.
