NEW YORK (Ticker) - The Denver Nuggets look to finish their five-game road trip on a high note.

After dropping three of their first four games of the trek, the Nuggets look to bounce back against the New York Knicks on Saturday.

Carmelo Anthony scored 42 points but it was not enough in a 119-114 loss to the Boston Celtics on Friday. He went 15-of-26 from the floor and was 11-of-17 from the free throw line.

The Nuggets have scored an average of 98 points on their road trip thus far.

Jamal Crawford netted 29 points in a 112-96 defeat at the hands of the Indiana Pacers on Friday.

The Knicks, who begin a four-game homestand, are 4-9 at Madison Square Garden this season.
