The New York Knicks (23-9) visit the San Antonio Spurs (23-9) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Wednesday, December 31, at the Frost Bank Center.
The Spurs look to bounce back at home in a high-profile match. Recently, they’ve dropped two straight in San Antonio after fourth-quarter collapses, including a 113-101 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Victor Wembanyama, who is averaging 24.0 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 3.5 assists this season, continues to headline San Antonio’s attack. In that Cavaliers game, Wembanyama hauled in a double-double performance of 26 points and 14 rebounds.
However, the Spurs could be without a major scoring piece: Devin Vassell has been ruled out (adductor strain), while Stephon Castle is questionable (thumb).
As for the Knicks, they’re trending the other way. New York enters on a three-game winning streak, and its most recent win was a gritty 130-125 comeback over the New Orleans Pelicans.
Jalen Brunson is playing like a top-tier closer, averaging 29.4 points and 6.6 assists on the season, and Karl-Anthony Towns has been a glass-eater at 11.9 rebounds per game.
The Knicks have key availability issues, though. Josh Hart, Landry Shamet, and Mitchell Robinson will miss Wednesday's game against the Spurs.

Our San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks Prediction
San Antonio’s path to covering is clear: win the glass, get downhill early, and avoid another late-game wobble. But Devin Vassell’s absence strips away their secondary scorer, and that matters against a Knicks team that can lean on Jalen Brunson in crunch time and punish mistakes with quick scoring bursts.
Given New York’s current momentum and San Antonio’s recent closing issues, the Knicks could keep this game close. Our prediction for the San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks match is: Knicks (+2.5) cover the spread.Grab an extra $350 for your San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks wager!
