### Knicks Edge Spurs in Game 2 Thriller to Take Commanding 2-0 Finals Lead

Sky Sports Champions League • June 6, 2026 at 5:20 AM ET

[×](/ru/sports?tab=skysports-champions-league)

The New York Knicks survived a nail-biter against the **San Antonio Spurs**, winning 105-104 in Game 2 behind Jalen Brunson's clutch free throw with 9.5 seconds remaining. Victor Wembanyama's late turnover and missed jumper sealed the Spurs' fate after they rallied from a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit to take a brief lead.

Karl-Anthony Towns dominated with **21 points and 13 rebounds**, while Brunson and Mikal Bridges each contributed 20 points. The Knicks extended their remarkable playoff run to 13 consecutive victories, matching historic company alongside the 1993 Chicago Bulls and 1995 Houston Rockets as only the third team to capture the first two Finals games on the road.

Wembanyama finished with 29 points but committed the decisive error, throwing away the ball before missing the potential game-winning shot on the final possession. The rookie's mistake capped a wild finish where San Antonio erased a double-digit hole only to fall victim to New York's veteran poise.

With Games 3 and 4 shifting to Madison Square Garden, the Knicks sit within reach of their first title since 1973, while the Spurs face elimination after failing to capitalize on their home-court advantage.
