Watch De’Aaron Fox for the Spurs — his clutch shot at the end of Game 3 could be a harbinger of things to come. The Spurs were unable to close out Games 1 and 2 late — the 2023 Kia Clutch Player of the Year showing up would be a huge swing factor.

Stephon Castle stepped up with 21 points in Game 3 — the Spurs are at their best when he’s efficient and productive, giving Devin Vassell and Julian Champagnie shots to fire away from deep with confidence.

Victor Wembanyama is, once again, in the biggest game of his career. He may not be Trae Young, but a big game could make him an outsized figure in the imaginations of Knicks fans for years to come.

On the other side, keep an eye on Mikal Bridges — he had just five points in Game 3 after 20 in Game 2 — and Karl-Anthony Towns. Towns has taken only six shots in the fourth quarter so far in this series — if the Knicks arae looking for an outlet late, watch to see if they look his way.

Jalen Brunson has been clutch, tough and relentless in this series — his mentality is special. But he can struggle when the rest of the team bogs down. OG Anunoby has been a great offensive player in this run, shooting 57 / 47.4 / 85.7 from the field, consistently lending a hand.
