Knicks, Spurs tip off NBA Finals rematch 27 years in the making
The New York Knicks are less than 24 hours from tipoff in their NBA Finals rematch against the San Antonio Spurs, but Mitchell Robinson’s pinky injury remains a major question. Tina Cervasio reports from San Antonio, where Robinson was listed as questionable for Game 1 but participated in warmups and drills with a light wrap around his finger and wrist. The matchup also features Jalen Brunson and Victor Wembanyama, who both enter the Finals as the faces of their teams.
