Anunoby Puts Knicks on Verge of Title, Himself in Spotlight

Anunoby’s late scoring and Karl-Anthony Towns’ defensive stop helped New York erase a 15-point deficit and take a 3-1 series lead, officials said.

  • On Wednesday, the New York Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 in Game 4, securing a 3-1 series lead in the NBA Finals with a historic comeback.
  • Trailing by around 15 points in the fourth quarter, the Knicks orchestrated a historic comeback, capped by OG Anunoby's crucial defensive play in the final seconds.
  • Wearing custom Skechers SKX Nexus NYC Blue, Anunoby made the game-winning play with 1.2 seconds left, providing the brand its biggest marketing moment since entering basketball less than three years ago.
  • Celebrations erupted across New York City as fans flooded Lafayette Avenue, with "Empire State of Mind" blaring from vehicles throughout the jubilant area.
  • With less than 6% of the global sports footwear market, Skechers positions itself for growth while Nike's stock has fallen 45% over the past year.
