OG Anunoby delivered the shot that clinched Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals, tipping Jalen Brunson’s miss with 1.2 seconds left to give the New York Knicks a 107‑106 victory at the historic Madison Square Garden. The 33 points performance, which featured seven three‑pointers, capped the largest comeback in Finals history and sparked the biggest British basketball TV audience since the Michael Jordan era.

Anunoby said the win represented “the top of British basketball history,” a sentiment echoed by coach Mike Brown who called the tip‑in the most iconic shot in New York basketball lore. The moment went viral worldwide, reinforcing basketball’s rapid significantly growth in the UK, now the second‑most popular team sport behind football, with a record four British players on NBA rosters this season today.

With the Knicks now leading the series 3‑1, they eye the Larry O’Brien Trophy while the Spurs, who entered Game 4 with a 99.7 % chance to win, face elimination. New York has won every closeout this postseason, averaging a 39.3‑point margin, and fans flock to San Antonio for what could end the franchise’s 47‑year title drought.
