What happened: The New York Knicks entered Friday's NBA Finals Game 2 in San Antonio riding a 12-game winning streak. Their previous loss came April 23, the opening night of the 2026 NFL Draft.

Why it matters: The streak has put New York in a commanding position during its championship run. Extending it would further strengthen the Knicks' grip on the Finals.

By the numbers: New York won 12 consecutive games between its April 23 loss and Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

What to watch: The Game 2 result will show whether New York's historic streak continued before the series shifted venues.
