In commemoration of the star forward's heroic putback that gave the Knicks a 107-106 miracle win in Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals against the San Antonio Spurs, Manhattan Borough President Brad Hoylman-Sigal has proclaimed June 11th, 2026, as OG Anunoby Appreciation Day in the Borough of Manhattan.
Hoylman-Sigal formally announced the proclamation in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
"Since joining the New York Knicks, OG Anunoby has made a tremendous impact on the team through his relentless work ethic, versatility, and dedication to winning, helping to elevate the performance and competitive spirit of the organization," the document states.
"The residents of New York City proudly recognize OG Anunoby for the excitement, pride, and inspiration he brings to basketball fans throughout the city and for his contributions to the continued success of the New York Knicks franchise."
OG Anunoby's game-winning putback catapults Knicks to historic comeback, brink of NBA title
In an extraordinary fashion, OG Anunoby saved the Knicks with his game-winning tip last Wednesday.
Coming from the inbound, after Jalen Brunson missed a deep 3-pointer, Anunoby suddenly flew high and secured the ball in the air, successfully tipping it off with 1.2 seconds remaining.
That historic play sealed the Knicks' 3-1 series lead over the Spurs and completed the biggest in-game comeback in NBA Finals history.
Anunoby and the Knicks will look to get the job done for one last time, as the Finals series shifts back to San Antonio for Game 5 on Saturday.
