Summary

  • Jalen Brunson was absent from New York's injury report for NBA Finals Game 2, easing concerns after the scare he suffered in the Knicks' 10-point Game 1 win over San Antonio.
  • Mitchell Robinson was the only Knick listed, marked probable with a finger issue that dates to the Cleveland series.
  • San Antonio enters Game 2 needing sharper offense after shooting 36% from the field and 26% from 3 in the opener.
  • Victor Wembanyama still topped 25 points and 10 rebounds in Game 1, but the Spurs won only rebounds and fast-break points while surrendering home-court advantage.
