Toney Douglas scored 19 points to lead six New York players in double figures as the Knicks defeated the Washington Wizards 112-91 at Madison Square Garden on Friday night.
The Knicks, who hit 16 3-pointers in Thursday's win over Chicago, added a dozen more against the Wizards, taking a 58-49 advantage at the half and cruising from there.
Raymond Felton had 13 points at half for New York (3-2) while Andray Blatche paced the Wizards with 18 points at intermission. Blatche finished with 22.
Gilbert Arenas made his season debut for the Wizards (1-3). He did not start but finished with 18 points in over 26 minutes.
Arenas hadn’t appeared in a regular-season game since Jan. 5. He was suspended the final 50 games of the season for bringing guns into the Verizon Center locker room.
Wizards rookie John Wall struggled, shooting 4-for-13 to finish with 13 points. He had seven assists but turned the ball over nine times.
Amar’e Stoudemire had 18 points for New York while Danilo Gallinari added 16.
