Carmelo Anthony started Saturday as the New York Knicks lost to the Phoenix Suns.

Anthony was listed as questionable due to his nagging knee injury. With the Knicks starting a back-to-back (they play Sunday in Toronto), there was some doubt as to whether he would play.

Anthony scored 25 points and racked up 11 rebounds in the Knicks' 90-90 loss, the Knicks' 23rd loss in 26 games.
