Trey Lyles scored a season-high 18 points and Patty Mills bagged 14 as the San Antonio Spurs used a balanced effort to beat New York 119-83 on Tuesday night, ending the Knicks' three-game winning streak.

San Antonio had eight players score at least eight points, including Dejounte Murray's 17, in the Spurs' seventh straight home victory over New York.

Immanuel Quickley led New York with 26 points. RJ Barrett added 15 and All-Star Julius Randle had 14.

The Knicks had won seven of nine entering Tuesday's game, but were never able to find a consistent rhythm against the Spurs.

In Milwaukee, Nikola Jokic reached a career milestone and helped the Denver Nuggets snap the Milwaukee Bucks' five-game winning streak in an emphatic fashion.

Jokic had 37 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds for his 50th career triple-double as the Nuggets trounced the Bucks 128-97.

The only other NBA player to collect at least 50 triple-doubles while primarily playing centre was Wilt Chamberlain.

"It just speaks to his greatness.," Nuggets coach Michael Malone said.

"The guy doesn't get fatigued. He doesn't get tired. When he was out of the game, he was in the huddles, he's on the bench imploring his teammates to rebound and play defence and move the ball. When your best player is doing that, that really sends a message."
