Knicks Reach NBA Finals After 27-Year Drought

New York Knicks secured their spot in the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999 after defeating Cleveland Cavaliers in four games.

The Knicks won 130-93 on the road in Game 4, advancing to the championship series. Karl-Anthony Towns led the team with 19 points and 14 rebounds in the victory.

They will face either Oklahoma City Thunder or San Antonio Spurs in the finals. The Knicks have won NBA championships twice before in 1970 and 1973, and now have a chance to end their championship drought. mchezo.co.za
