The New York Knicks defeat the San Antonio Spurs 105-104 in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, taking a 2-0 series lead. The finish comes down to the final moments, when Spurs star Victor Wembanyama (listed as “Wemby” in the reports) misses a potential game-winning attempt at the end of the game. With the loss, the Spurs fall behind by two games in the best-of series and move one step closer to elimination if they do not rebound in subsequent matchups. The Knicks are described by multiple outlets as coming off strong form, playing well enough to protect a narrow margin and secure the back-to-back advantage. The result places New York two wins away from an NBA championship, while San Antonio faces the challenge of winning the next games to change the series momentum.
