Knicks win first NBA title since 1973 after Finals victory over Spurs

Posted : 15 June 2026

The New York Knicks ended a 53-year championship drought with a hard-fought 94-90 victory over the San Antonio Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals at the Frost Bank Center. The win sealed a dominant playoff campaign in which New York consistently overturned deficits and outlasted every opponent on their way to the title.

Despite trailing 83-73 in the final quarter, the Knicks mounted another late comeback, showcasing the resilience that defined their postseason run. The franchise finished the playoffs with a record +283 point differential, the highest in NBA postseason history, underlining their dominance throughout the campaign.

Head coach Mike Brown, who took charge after a turbulent hiring process last summer, described the triumph as overwhelming and emotional, crediting both his staff and players for sustaining belief through a demanding season. He praised the team’s ability to control what they could and stay united despite uncertainty around his appointment.

Players also reflected on the journey, with Josh Hart highlighting the team’s sacrifice, defensive intensity, and unity. He credited Brown for building strong habits and praised the Knicks’ culture shift, which helped transform doubters into champions as New York finally lifted the trophy for the first time since 1973.
