Knicks hold 2‑1 lead over Spurs ahead of Game 4 at Madison Square Garden

The New York Knicks lead the San Antonio Spurs 2‑1 in the 2026 NBA Finals as the series shifts to Game 4 on June 10 at Madison Square Garden. The game kicks off at 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC and will be streamed on services such as DirecTV, FuboTV, Hulu, Sling TV, YouTube TV and Prime Video. The Knicks entered the matchup with a 2‑1 series advantage after winning the first two games on the road; the Spurs responded with a 115‑111 victory in Game 3, highlighted by Victor Wembanyama’s 32 points, eight rebounds and three blocks.

Spurs‑run offense exploded early in Game 4, racing to a 41‑22 lead after the first quarter and a 59‑34 halftime edge, the largest first‑half road‑team margin in Finals history. New York’s Jalen Brunson (32 points) and OG Anunoby (28) attempted to close the gap, while the Knicks struggled with turnovers and foul trouble for Karl‑Anthony Towns. Celebrity fans—including Taylor Swift, Timothée Chalamet, Spike Lee and others—filled the arena’s “Knights Couture” courtside fashion scene, while reports noted heightened tension for Spurs fans wearing team gear in New York.

The outcome of Game 4 will determine whether the Knicks can extend their lead toward a first championship since 1973 or see the series tied 2‑2 and head back to San Antonio for Game 5.
