New York Knicks vs San Antonio Spurs Final Score & Over/Under Result — Dec 31, 2025

San Antonio's recent head-to-head dominance over New York—a 124–113 victory on December 16—suggested the Spurs might control the sequel. Instead, this game became a slugfest that defied both teams' recent scoring trends and blew past the market total by 30.5 points.

The opening quarter set the tone immediately, with combined scoring of 81 points as New York's offense came out firing: Jalen Brunson (29 pts, 8 ast) and Miles McBride (21 pts) led the Knicks to 45 first-quarter points against San Antonio's 36. But the Spurs refused to be buried. Julian Champagnie erupted for 36 points and Victor Wembanyama added 31 points and 13 rebounds, keeping San Antonio within striking distance through a sluggish 55-point second quarter. The third quarter continued the pattern of offensive indulgence with 59 combined points before a 71-point fourth quarter finale pushed the total to 266.

The Knicks' 132 proved just short despite Karl-Anthony Towns contributing 20 points and 7 rebounds. San Antonio's De'Aaron Fox chipped in 26 points and 7 assists to anchor the Spurs' 134 final. The first half's 136 combined points signaled early that this matchup would challenge the 235.5 market total; the second half's 130 more than confirmed it. DAGGER leaned under and missed decisively as offense overwhelmed both defenses.
