LAS VEGAS (AP) — Quentin Grimes had 24 points and eight assists, Jericho Sims scored 16 points on 7-of-8 shooting from the field and the New York Knicks overcame Moses Moody's 34 points to beat the Golden State Warriors 101-88 on Friday night at the Las Vegas Summer League.

Moody was 8 for 13 from the floor and 15 of 17 from the free throw line. Mac McClung added 17 points for the Warriors.

Jonathan Kuminga, picked No. 7 overall by Golden State in the 2021 draft, had four points and five of the Warriors’ 23 turnovers. The 6-foot-9, 19-year-old made 2 of 10 from the field, 0 of 4 from 3-point range and 0 of 4 from the free throw line.

Feron Hunt had 17 points on 8-of-12 shooting for the Knicks. Miles McBride had 14 points and seven assists, and DaQuan Jeffries scored 12 points. Sims had 10 rebounds.

BULLS 100, MAVERICKS 99, OT

Marko Simonovic had 27 points, 13 rebounds and blocked three shots to help Chicago beat Dallas.

Simonovic, a second-round pick in 2020, made 10 of 17 from the field and 7 of 8 from the free throw line. The 6-foot-11 center from Montenegro — trailing on the fast break — caught a bounce pass from Carlik Jones near the top of the key, took a dribble and threw down a two-hand dunk with 21 seconds left in regulation to make it 90-all and, eventually, force overtime.

A.J. Lawson and Jaden Hardy — a second-round pick in June’s draft after spending last season with the G League Ignite — finished with 28 points apiece for the Mavericks. Lawson made 10 of 16 from the field and 6 of 11 from 3-point range.

PACERS 96, HORNETS 84

Bennedict Mathurin, picked No. 6 overall in last month's draft, scored 23 points on 9-of-16 shooting and Chris Duarte added 16 points to lead Indiana.

Terry Taylor had 11 points, Duane Washington Jr. scored 10 and Isaiah Jackson — a first-round pick, along with Duarte, in the 2021 draft — finished with nine points, 12 rebounds and four blocks for the Pacers.

Bryce McGowens led the Hornets with 17 points. LJ Figueroa went 6 of 6 from the field — including two 3-pointers — and finished with 16 points. Nick Richards added 15 points and 11 rebounds and Kai Jones had 12 points and nine rebounds, but went 0 for 10 from 3-point range.

CAVALIERS 99, SPURS 90

RJ Nembhard Jr. scored 20 points and Amar Sylla had 19 points and eight rebounds to lead Cleveland past San Antonio.

Ochai Agbaji, picked 14th overall in last month's draft, hit four 3-pointers and finished with 16 points. Malik Osborne added 13 points and Cam Young scored 10 for the Cavaliers.

Blake Wesley and Josh Primo — first-round picks by the Spurs in 2022 and 2021, respectively — scored 20 points apiece. Malaki Branham, picked No. 20 overall in June, had 15 points.

BUCKS 94, NETS 90

Lindell Wigginton had 17 points and seven assists, Sandro Mamukelashvili also scored 17 points and Milwaukee held off Brooklyn.

Mamukelashvili hit a 3-pointer and then made a driving floater before he found MarJon Beauchamp — who made multiple plays down the stretch — for a corner 3 that gave the Bucks a 93-82 lead with 1:17 to play.

Beauchamp finished with 16 points and A.J. Green added 15 for Milwaukee.

Cam Thomas led Brooklyn with 31 points and David Duke Jr. scored 22. Day’Ron Sharpe had eight points, 10 rebounds, three steals and a block.
