The New York Knicks can build on a three-game winning streak in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and produce a repeat of the 2025 NBA Cup final, as they visit the San Antonio Spurs on Dec 31 (Jan 1 morning, Singapore time) in a clash between two of the league's best teams.
The Knicks and Spurs squared off in the final of the NBA's in-season tournament on Dec 16 in Las Vegas, with the Knicks winning 124-113 in a contest that did not count towards the regular-season standings.
Since then, both teams have each won five of their seven games - but with the big difference coming in the most recent stretch. With both holding 23-9 marks, New York head to Texas after a gritty 130-125 win on Dec 29 in New Orleans.
