Knicks 29-point – With 1.2 seconds left, OG Anunoby’s tip-in completed the largest comeback in NBA Finals history, sending the New York Knicks to a 3–1 series lead over the San Antonio Spurs after erasing a 29-point deficit in Game 4. Jalen Brunson scored 36 points as Madison S
The decision Knicks fans faced Tuesday night was brutal in its own way: chase the $400 million Mega Millions jackpot—or watch their team turn a 29-point hole into an NBA Finals memory.
In the end, New York did both the hard way. OG Anunoby’s tip-in with 1.2 seconds left sealed the largest comeback in NBA Finals history, lifting the Knicks past the San Antonio Spurs and giving them a 3–1 lead in the series after a Game 4 turnaround that started out looking hopeless.
San Antonio was in full control for most of the game. Then the momentum swung—fast. Sloppy play and poor shooting by the Spurs opened the door, and the Knicks crashed through it, cutting the deficit until the final minutes became a scramble for every point.
Jalen Brunson carried the charge with 36 points. His 3-pointer with 2:21 left gave New York its first lead at 104–103. Less than a minute later, the five-foot floater in the lane added another one-point edge.
The Spurs regained the lead only when it mattered most. Stephon Castle’s two free throws pushed San Antonio back in front at 106–105 with 30.3 seconds remaining.
From there, it came down to a last chance. The Spurs’ shot attempt at the buzzer missed, and Madison Square Garden didn’t just react—it erupted, as the Knicks secured the win and the series advantage.
New York now takes a 3–1 series lead, with Game 5 set for Saturday night in San Antonio.
