Already with the best record in the Eastern Conference, the Orlando Magic might be getting even better.

Rashard Lewis seems to have found his form after a season-opening suspension.

Lewis scored 13 of his season-high 26 points in the third quarter, and the Magic beat the New York Knicks 114-102 on Sunday night for their sixth straight road victory.

"He got it going in the second half. That was nice," Orlando coach Stan Van Gundy said. "It was the first time this year that he's really gotten it rolling and that's a good feeling."

Lewis sat out the first 10 games after testing positive for an elevated testosterone level, and hadn't scored more than 17 points before Sunday. But he shot 6 of 9 and made the go-ahead basket with 44 seconds left in a victory at Milwaukee on Saturday, then made three 3-pointers in the decisive third quarter against the Knicks.
