Victor Wembanyama fuels Spurs’ Game 3 win, then cites “greediness” after Game 4 collapse

Victor Wembanyama scored 32 points, 14 rebounds and five blocks as the San Antonio Spurs defeated the New York Knicks 112‑107 in Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden, cutting the Knicks’ series lead to 2‑1. Hours before tip‑off, a video of Wembanyama sketching in Manhattan’s Gramercy Park went viral, with the rookie saying the quiet activity helped him relax.

In Game 4, the Spurs surrendered a 29‑point third‑quarter lead and lost 107‑106, giving the Knicks a 3‑1 series advantage. Wembanyama blamed “greediness” and a lack of execution for the collapse, noting the team’s inability to stay hungry in the second half. The series shifts back to San Antonio for Game 5.
