WASHINGTON, Nov. 27 (Xinhua) -- Damian Lillard scored 32 points and the Portland Trail Blazers wrapped up a strong five-game journey with their third straight victory, beating the New York Knicks 103-91 on Monday.

Pat Connaughton added 17 points for the Trail Blazers, who also won at Memphis, Brooklyn and Washington while losing only in Philadelphia.

Kristaps Porzingis returned from a one-game absence and scored 22 points for New York.

"The game was low energy from our guys. We have to do it from the tip-off and I don't think our energy was there," Knicks coach Jeff Hornacek said.
