The New York Knicks pulled off a historic victory in Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the San Antonio Spurs. Many credit the win to a combination of skill and a bit of divine intervention.

Karl-Anthony Towns pointed to what he described as a ‘right hand from God’ aiding his teammate, OG Anunoby, in making a crucial game-winning tip-in with only 1.2 seconds left on the clock. Towns confidently stated, ‘Every time I talk to him, I say, I already know what OG Anunoby’s gonna do in the fourth quarter. He did exactly what I thought he would do. Gave us a chance to win.’

Anunoby did the unthinkable with his last-second tip-in, capping off an improbable comeback. The numbers behind the Knicks’ rally are staggering. The New York team trailed by 29 points at one point, the largest deficit overcome by a team to win in the NBA Finals. Their 27-point halftime deficit was the most any winning team had managed to overcome in the history of the championship round.

Anunoby, along with his teammate Jalen Brunson, made history as the first Knicks duo to score 30 points each in an NBA Finals game. Brunson led the team with 36 points, while Anunoby contributed 33. This marked the Knicks’ first victory in an NBA Finals home game in 9,853 days, highlighted by Keerthika Uthayakumar.

Their stunning comeback seemed almost miraculous as Anunoby and Brunson helped secure a 3-1 series lead, moving away from the possibility of a split. Knicks fans, long familiar with misfortune and bad luck, might finally see their fortune changing for the better.
