Victor Wembanyama Hit With Egg After Losing Game 4 of NBA Finals

The yet to be identified fan was part of a large contingent of raucous Knicks fans who were camped outside of the Spurs’ hotel, waiting for an opportunity to serenade the visiting Spurs with boos and chants of “Knicks in five.”

The egg grazed the 7’5 Wembanyama’s head and he immediately reacted, briefly pausing, clearly surprised that someone attempted to go sunny-side up on his dome hours after he totaled 24 points and 13 rebounds in a 107-106 loss inside Madison Square Garden.

NBA Finals Odds Revealed

New York’s win saw their chances of winning the NBA Finals increase to 80% on Polymarket. San Antonio currently trails the Knicks 3 games to 1.

Meanwhile, Knicks forward OG Anunoby, who scored the game-winning basket in the final seconds versus the Spurs, moved into second place on Polymarket to be named Finals MVP. Anunoby is at 28% and New York’s Jalen Brunson is atop the list at 51%.

Following San Antonio’s Game 3 loss, Wembanyama told media members, “It feels like we worked too hard and give up our leads. It’s as simple as that. It hurts.”

Wemby was alluding to a Spurs lead that climbed as high as 29 points before faltering.

In the Finals, Wembanyama’s averaging 28.3 points, 10.5 rebounds and 3.3 assists through four games. His individual play has been phenomenal. But if he and his teammates don’t lock in – especially after a particularly brash and vocal first half of Game 3 – they’ll have egg on their face to go along with Wemby’s head.
