Cebu City, Philippines – The New York Knicks survived the career high 38 points of reigning NBA Rookie of the Year Luka Doncic, to beat the Mavericks 106-102 at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas, Texas, Friday night (Saturday morning, Philippine time).

Julius Randle, Frank Ntilikina, and Bobby Portis added 21, 14, and 14, respectively for the Knicks, who got their second win in 9 outings, thus far this season.
