Background

The 2026 NBA Finals feature the Eastern Conference champion New York Knicks and the Western Conference champion San Antonio Spurs, with Game 1 scheduled for June 3, 2026.

Overtime games in the NBA Finals are historically rare but have provided some of the most iconic moments in basketball. Only two games in Finals history have ever gone to triple overtime (the Boston Celtics vs. Phoenix Suns in 1976, and the Chicago Bulls vs. Phoenix Suns in 1993). The 1957 Finals between the Celtics and the St. Louis Hawks hold the all-time record for the most total overtimes in a single series, with 4 overtimes spread across two games.
