The Knicks are off to a 2-0 series lead over the Spurs as the NBA Finals head to Madison Square Garden for Game 3.
Julian Champagnie got things started with a layup via a flare screen from Victor Wembanyama. On the next possession, Wembanyama skipped a pass to Champagnie for a 3-pointer from the left wing, with Jalen Brunson also getting called for a flagrant foul.
The President's attendance at the game, the first finals matchup the New York Knicks have hosted in 27 years, has drawn backlash from fans.
You could feel how badly Victor Wembanyama wanted it. With the game on the line — tied midway through the fourth — his desire to make the big play himself led to some ill-advised hero-ball shots. The mistakes of youth.
His strong game, which included eight rebounds, six assists, two steals and three blocks, earned him a nasty chant from a Garden crowd that, over Wembanyama’s nearly 39 minutes of court time, generally grew weary of his excellence. New Knicks’ nemesis? “I guess. I’m nowhere near Trae Young level, though,” the Spurs center said with a smile.
