Knicks escape late scare to seize 2-0 Finals lead over Spurs

The New York Knicks survived a late 14-0 Spurs run and held on to win Game 2, 105-104, to take a commanding 2-0 series lead in the NBA Finals. Towns and Bridges fueled the offense while Brunson, despite a rough shooting night, made clutch plays, including a late tying bucket and a late free throw after a turnover by Wembanyama. The Spurs’ late comeback fell short when Wembanyama missed the final shot after a turnover, leaving New York in control as the series heads home.
