Knicks vs. Spurs live score, updates, highlights from 2026 NBA Finals Game 5
The Knicks can clinch their first NBA title in 53 years after a historic Game 4 comeback and a 3-1 series lead, officials said.
On Saturday, June 13, the New York Knicks lead the San Antonio Spurs 3-1 in the 2026 NBA Finals and can secure their first championship in 53 years at the Frost Bank Center.
The Knicks established their commanding series lead after completing the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history on Wednesday, erasing a 29-point deficit to defeat the Spurs 107-106 in Game 4.
Despite New York being heavily favored to win the title at-500 odds, the Spurs are 5.5-point favorites to win Game 5 at home, according to betting markets.
Spurs players hope to leverage their home-court advantage and resiliency to stave off elimination, aiming to bounce back from the gutting nature of their Game 4 collapse.
A victory for the Knicks would end their 53-year drought, while a Spurs win would force the series back to New York for Game 6 on Tuesday, June 16.
