San Antonio Knicks chase first NBA title in 53 years
Read, Watch or Listen
The New York Knicks are one victory from their first NBA championship since 1973 as they lead the NBA Finals 3–1 over the San Antonio Spurs heading into Game 5 tonight at Frost Bank Center in San Antonio. New York’s position follows a historic Game 4, in which the Knicks erased a 29-point second-half deficit, the largest comeback in NBA Finals history, to win 107–106. OG Anunoby’s tip-in with 1.2 seconds remaining sealed that result after Jalen Brunson’s missed three-pointer. Every game in the series has been decided by four points or fewer, leaving the Spurs needing three straight wins to avoid elimination.
