Spurs aim to swing Game 5 in 2026 NBA Finals against Knicks

The San Antonio Spurs entered Game 5 of the 2026 NBA Finals trailing the New York Knicks 3‑1. After a 29‑point loss in Game 4, the biggest comeback margin in Finals history, the Spurs are focusing on a single‑game mindset. Rookie star Victor Wembanyama said, “I think it’s going to go one of two ways… the good one would be getting stronger through this.” The team hopes to regain momentum on its home floor and avoid a repeat of the 2016 Cavaliers comeback that saw LeBron James rally Cleveland from a similar deficit.

If the Spurs can capture Game 5, they will narrow the series and keep the championship within reach, while the Knicks sit just one win away from the title.
