OG Anunoby wrote his name into New York sports lore on Wednesday night, tipping in the game-winner with 1.2 seconds left as the Knicks stunned the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, completing the largest comeback in Finals history and moving within one win of the franchise's first title since 1973.
Trailing by one with 5.7 seconds remaining, Anunoby inbounded to Jalen Brunson, who launched a deep three that missed. Anunoby crashed down the lane untouched, soared between multiple Spurs rebounders, and tapped the ball home to send Madison Square Garden into a frenzy.
“We're resilient, we never give up,” Anunoby said afterward. “It's a game of runs. They went on one early. We knew we were going to go on our own run, so we just stayed with it and kept pushing.”

The win seemed unthinkable for most of the night. San Antonio set a Finals record with 14 first-half threes, shot 59.6 percent before the break, and carried a 76-49 halftime cushion, the largest by a visiting team in Finals history. The Spurs pushed their advantage to 81-52 in the third quarter and still led 95-75 with 9:33 to play. No team had erased more than a 24-point deficit in a Finals game since detailed play-by-play tracking began in 1997.

But San Antonio collapsed in the second half, shooting 8-for-39 (20.5 percent) as New York outscored them 58-30. Victor Wembanyama, brilliant early with 16 first-half points, went 3-for-14 after intermission and finished with 24 points and 13 rebounds on 9-of-25 shooting.
Anunoby was sensational on both ends, pouring in 33 points on 10-of-15 shooting, including 7-of-9 from three, in 41 minutes. With New York down one in the final seconds, he also blocked De'Aaron Fox's transition layup attempt, setting up the game-winning possession. Brunson, scoreless from the field in the first quarter, finished with a game-high 36 points, seven assists, and three steals, and his floater with 1:22 remaining gave the Knicks their first lead of the night.
Stephon Castle's free throws restored San Antonio's advantage before Anunoby's heroics. The Spurs had one final chance with 1.2 seconds left, but Castle couldn't control Dylan Harper's inbounds pass, and no shot got off.
Now holding a 3-1 series lead, the Knicks have three opportunities to clinch the championship, beginning with Game 5 on Saturday night in San Antonio.
