An even dozen! With a 10-point win in Game 1, the New York Knicks extended their win streak to 12 games. The Spurs blew a 14-point lead to let this happen.
San Antonio jumped out to an early held and held a 7-point advantage at halftime. But after a second-half explosion and 30-point game from a bloodied Jalen Brunson, the Knicks ran away with the victory.
Karl-Anthony Towns had an 18-point double-double in this contest, with Josh Hart tacking on 15 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals. For the Spurs, Wembanyama went just 6-for-21 from the floor but still managed a 26-point double-double. Julian Champagnie also had a double-double of his own.
Looking ahead to Game 2, the key for the Knicks is to continue shutting down the Spurs' biggest threats. Wembanyama held a field goal percentage of 51.2 during the regular season. In Game 1, that number was below 30.
In order to bounce back, the Spurs will need to handle the ball more effectively. San Antonio had 13 turnovers in Game 1 while New York had just 8. As a result, the Knicks garnered five more points off turnovers than the Spurs, a key factor in their win.
