The New York Knicks edged the San Antonio Spurs 94-90 on June 13 at Frost Bank Center, with Jalen Brunson's 45-point performance anchoring a fourth-quarter surge that proved decisive. Brunson's dominant scoring came as the Knicks outscored San Antonio 29-18 in the final period, erasing a tight contest that saw both teams shoot poorly overall—New York at 35.6% and San Antonio at 38.4%—yet each connected on 12 three-pointers. The Spurs' D. Harper led his team with 25 points and was supported by Victor Wembanyama's 19, but San Antonio's 12 turnovers to New York's 10 contributed to the loss. New York's defensive intensity showed through with 8 steals compared to San Antonio's 6, and the Knicks' 97.6 offensive rating edged the Spurs' 97.4 in a low-scoring affair that fell well short of the 216.5 Vegas total. The Knicks' ability to control the fourth quarter despite modest shooting percentages underscored their clutch execution when it mattered most, positioning them favorably in the series.
