Following New York's dramatic Game 4 victory over the San Antonio Spurs, a remarkable statistic emerged that highlights just how efficient Anunoby has been during the 2026 NBA Playoffs.
A newly revealed statistic shows that no player in NBA history has matched what Anunoby is doing this postseason.
"In the Tracking Era, there have been 568 players with 500+ touches in a single playoff run. No one has produced more points per direct touch than OG Anunoby in 2026," reported the All NBA Podcast on X, formerly Twitter.
Hero of Game 4
The latest example came in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
The Knicks completed the largest comeback in Finals history, erasing a 29-point deficit to defeat the Spurs 107-106 and take a commanding 3-1 lead in the series.
Anunoby was at the center of everything.
The forward finished with a playoff career-high 33 points while shooting an outstanding 10-for-15 from the field. He also connected on 7 of his 9 attempts from three-point range.
New York now holds a 3-1 advantage in the NBA Finals and needs just one more win to capture its first NBA title since 1973.
