Jalen Brunson delivered the scoring punch New York needed, pouring in 45 points as the Knicks beat the San Antonio Spurs 94-90 on June 13. Brunson shot 14-for-27 from the field and 4-for-7 from three-point range, carrying New York’s offense in a game where neither team reached 100 points. He also contributed three rebounds, three assists and two steals.

Josh Hart supplied a double-double with 13 points and 11 rebounds, knocking down three of his six three-point attempts. His plus-15 rating was the best among New York’s listed top performers. Mikal Bridges added 14 points and four assists, shooting 5-for-10 overall and 3-for-7 from deep. OG Anunoby finished with 11 points, eight rebounds, three steals and a block despite a 3-for-11 shooting night.

Dylan Harper led San Antonio with 25 points on 10-for-19 shooting, adding five rebounds and four assists. Victor Wembanyama posted 19 points, 14 rebounds and five blocks, but shot 7-for-19 from the floor and 1-for-6 beyond the arc. His production on the glass and at the rim gave the Spurs substantial support alongside Harper’s scoring.

Julian Champagnie contributed 14 points and seven rebounds, making four of eight three-point attempts. Devin Vassell added 12 points, seven rebounds and two steals on 5-for-8 shooting. San Antonio had four listed performers in double figures, but Brunson’s 45-point performance was the standout in New York’s narrow road win.
