The San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks meet in the 2026 NBA Finals for the first time since 1999, when San Antonio won in five games during a lockout-shortened season marred by low ratings and fan apathy. This time the matchup features 22-year-old Victor Wembanyama leading a 62-win Spurs squad against Jalen Brunson and a Knicks team seeking to end a 53-year championship drought, with record-breaking viewership and ticket prices reflecting a transformed NBA landscape.
