The New York Knicks took Game 1 on the road as Victor Wembanyama struggled to score in the San Antonio Spurs’ NBA Finals opener; Jalen Brunson notched 30 points and provided vital impetus as the visitors came from behind in the fourth quarter
Last Updated: 04/06/26 7:30am
The New York Knicks raised their NBA Playoffs winning streak to a dozen games as Jalen Brunson starred in their Finals opener against the San Antonio Spurs.
Brunson scored 30 points and Karl-Anthony Towns finished with 18 points and 12 rebounds as the Knicks erased a 14-point second-half deficit to beat the Spurs 105-95 in Game 1 on Wednesday night.
Great Britain’s OG Anunoby also had 17 points as New York became the first of these teams to win on the road against the other this season.
French phenom Victor Wembanyama had 26 points and 12 rebounds for the Spurs, but he shot just 6 for 21 from the field in his finals debut. Stephon Castle scored 17, while Julian Champagnie and Dylan Harper each had 16 for the Spurs, who will have the chance to bounce back in Game 2 on Friday night, also in San Antonio.
Former San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich was at the game, as he has been for every finals game in Spurs history, albeit watching from a suite and not stomping the San Antonio sideline. The Spurs legends – David Robinson, Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, Bruce Bowen and more – were there, too.

“He came in highly touted. He was somebody who even before he came into the NBA was blowing up the internet in terms of his highlights,” Silver said. “Did I have a specific expectation in terms of numbers of years it would take him to get to the finals? No. But I would say, just trying to be an objective observer, he’s ahead of any timeline that people had in mind.”
That may be true. He’s just not ahead in this series – and Friday’s test will be a big one.
