Brunson Powers Knicks Past Spurs in Finals Opener

The New York Knicks extended their playoff winning streak to 12 games with a 105-95 victory over the San Antonio Spurs in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. Guard Jalen Brunson led the way with 30 points, while the Knicks kept Victor Wembanyama relatively contained in the Spurs' home court.

With the win, the Knicks are now just three victories away from capturing their first NBA title since 1973. The Spurs, who had eliminated the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder in the previous round, struggled to contain the Knicks' hot streak. tbzikra.org
