Overview
- The New York Knicks overcame a 29-point hole to beat the San Antonio Spurs in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, with OG Anunoby tipping in the winning basket with under two seconds left after Jalen Brunson missed a deep three.
- San Antonio's hot shooting produced an NBA Finals record 14 three-pointers in the first two periods, which built the large early lead the Knicks erased.
- Wrestling personality Danhausen posted on X taking credit for the turnaround while also confirming he was not at Madison Square Garden for the game.
- A high-profile crowd at MSG included celebrities such as Taylor Swift, Ben Stiller, Spike Lee and others, which amplified media attention around the game and its narrative.
- Coverage treats Danhausen's 'uncursing' storyline as a performative publicity stunt that ties together WWE and sports media rather than as evidence that it affected on-court results, and the comeback follows other late-game rallies by the Knicks this postseason.
