The San Antonio Spurs’ historic collapse in Game 4 of the NBA Finals was capped by a final indignity. NBA star Victor Wembanyama was hit by an egg that appeared to have been thrown by taunting Knicks fans as the Spurs returned to the team hotel.
Footage circulating on social media showed at least one egg thrown in Wembanyama’s direction as security staff escorted him to a New York City hotel. It’s the latest in a series of headline-grabbing incidents involving Knicks fans in recent days.
The aftermath of San Antonio’s Game 3 victory extended beyond the arena, as social media videos apparently showed Knicks fans physically engaging with Spurs supporters. Some of those Spurs fans appeared to have their shirts ripped off during the exchanges, prompting Wembanyama to condemn the behaviour.

“My thoughts of course [are] “We can’t forget that it’s a game,” he said. “We’re just playing a game.” I’m all for the passion, but [with] mutual respect. “It’s unacceptable.”
The reigning NBA Defensive Player of the Year wasn’t alone in that opinion, as ESPN host Mike Greenberg expressed similar sentiments after Game 4.
“If you’re throwing eggs at Victor Wembanyama and hitting people… threatening… or doing anything to people wearing Spurs jerseys, know that you’re a disgrace. You’re not disgracing this city, you’re disgracing yourself and everyone who knows you,” Greenberg, a New York native, said on Thursday’s edition of “Get Up.”

“And that should be self-evident. We now live in a world where, in some ways, things are no longer self-evident,” Greenberg continued. “You are a disgrace and everyone around you who knows you.”
