A fan is on the court!
In the fourth quarter of Game 1 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs, a young man ran onto the court and pulled his phone out to take a selfie. Security quickly swooped in and escorted the fan off the court in San Antonio.
Victor Wembanyama, who the fan was seemingly trying to get in the selfie, was standing next to Mitchell Robinson. The Spurs center laughed while the Knicks big man looked confused.

The Knicks were up 92-86 with 6:34 on the clock at the time of the incident. Play eventually continued with a jump ball.
The Knicks are playing in their first Finals since 1999. The series, which marks Wembanyama's debut in the Finals, is a rematch of that championship.
