The New York Knicks pulled off the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history, overcoming a 29-point deficit to stun the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 in Game 4 Wednesday.

Second-Half Surge

The Spurs led 41-22 at the end of the first quarter and eventually led by 29 thanks to scorching shooting throughout the first half. However, they couldn’t sustain that for the second half, shockingly scoring just 14 and 16 in the final two quarters, respectively.

Jalen Brunson hit a big three right in front of Victor Wembanyama, while Jose Alvarado made some plays, too. Despite a colossal layup miss by Josh Hart, OG Anunoby made up for it with the tip-in make of his life in the final moments.

San Antonio had just 1.2 seconds to get off a shot, still ample time in today’s league. But the inbounds pass to Stephon Castle fell short and he couldn’t get off a look in time.

Key Performances

Jalen Brunson led all scorers with 36 points, shooting more efficiently with a 12-25 clip and adding seven assists. Anunoby’s underrated playoffs continued further with 33 points on 10 of 15 shooting, including the most important bucket of the game.

Karl-Anthony Towns was the only other Knick to eclipse double-figures, scoring 13. He struggled for playing time in the first half due to foul trouble, but he made a tough and timely triple in the fourth.

San Antonio had five double-digit scorers, with Wembanyama’s 24 leading the way. But he only went 9-for-25 from the field, including two straight missed free throws in the closing stretch.
