The New York Knicks edged the San Antonio Spurs 107–106 on June 10 at Madison Square Garden in a defensive struggle that fell well short of the Vegas total of 216.5 points. Jalen Brunson led the Knicks with 36 points, supported by OG Anunoby's 33 points, as New York shot 46.2% from the field and connected on 15 three-pointers. San Antonio's Victor Wembanyama contributed 24 points and Devin Harper added 21, though the Spurs' 41.9% shooting proved insufficient despite making 17 threes and dishing out 24 assists. The Spurs dominated the first half, outscoring New York 76–49 through two quarters, but the Knicks mounted a decisive fourth-quarter comeback, outscoring San Antonio 32–16 in the final frame to secure the one-point victory. New York's defense tightened considerably in the second half, holding the Spurs to just 30 points over the final 24 minutes. The Knicks' 39 rebounds and 23 assists provided the foundation for their resilience, while San Antonio's 10 steals could not overcome their late-game collapse. The result has significant playoff implications for both teams' positioning in the postseason race.
