10 июл. 2026 г.Game 1 in the 2026 NBA Finals: Spurs and Knicks Ready for a Title Battle
The 2026 NBA Finals open in San Antonio with the Spurs hosting the New York Knicks. It is seed No. 2 versus seed No. 3, and the series score starts at 0-0. Tip-off details and live coverage are available on Sofascore.
Stage set in San Antonio
Game 1 is at Frost Bank Center, a 19,000-seat venue that should be loud from the opening possession. The Spurs hold home court as the higher seed, while the Knicks arrive as the No. 3 seed from the NBA Playoffs. The matchup is listed as not started, so starting fives are still to be confirmed before tip-off.
If you like structure, this one follows the standard four-quarter, 12-minute format with overtime at five minutes if needed. You can track every quarter on Sofascore once the action begins.
Odds and point spread for Game 1
The market leans toward the hosts. Full-time odds show San Antonio at 53/100, with New York priced at 8/5. The point spread is set at Spurs -4.5 at 10/11, while Knicks +4.5 is also 10/11.
These prices reflect Game 1 only and can move before tip-off. Check Sofascore’s odds section for updated numbers as the Final gets closer.
Benches and game management
On the sideline, San Antonio lists Mitch Johnson as head coach, while New York is led by Mike Brown. With lineups unconfirmed, rotations and early matchups will be worth a close look once announced. Expect both staffs to test tempo and spacing early to feel out the series.
Keep an eye on timeouts and adjustments across the third quarter, a common swing period in the NBA Playoffs. Sofasscore will show momentum shifts as they happen.
How to follow on Sofascore
Sofascore will carry live score, box score and quarter-by-quarter updates for the NBA Finals. You will also see live Sofascore Ratings once the game gets underway. Track team performance, score runs and in-game trends in one place.
Final thought
San Antonio opens as a modest favorite at home, but Game 1 often sets the tone rather than settles it. Set your alerts, watch for the confirmed lineups, and follow every possession on Sofascore.
