In Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals, De’Aaron Fox of the San Antonio Spurs faced criticism after a crucial missed layup attempt, which was blocked by OG Anunoby, contributing to the Knicks’ historic comeback from a 29-point deficit to win 107-106. With less than 15 seconds remaining, Fox opted for the layup instead of running down the clock, a decision that backfired and led to the Knicks securing possession for the game-winning tip-in. Despite his earlier success in the series, Fox’s blunder became emblematic of the Spurs’ collapse, raising questions about his performance amid a disappointing playoff run. The Spurs now find themselves one game away from elimination, while the Knicks are on the verge of their first championship since 1973.
