San Antonio’s Victor Wembanyama scores 32 points as the Spurs beat the New York Knicks 115-111 in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. The victory gives San Antonio its first win in this best-of-seven series and reduces New York’s series lead to 2-1. Multiple outlets report that Wembanyama also contributes eight rebounds and six assists while helping the Spurs hold off the Knicks in a closely contested game.
The Knicks had entered Game 3 on a strong run, with sources noting New York’s 13-game playoff winning streak prior to the loss. Despite that momentum, the Spurs’ performance in Game 3—powered by Wembanyama’s scoring—keeps New York from extending the streak and sets up the next matchup with the series still tightly contested.
