@YahooSports Wemby's gotta be *that* good to avoid multiple Finals droughts. 😬

What are the odds Wemby never makes it back to the NBA Finals during his career? 🤔

@NBA 🤯The Finals run was… a lot. 🤯

Round 1 vs. ATL: W, L, L, W, W, W Round 2 vs. PHI: W, W, W, W East Finals vs. CLE: W, W, W, W NBA Finals vs. SAS: W, W, L, W, W

@Pritchard_goat @Y232WRF @KalshiHoops lol

@Y232WRF @locklabpicks @KalshiHoops It’s obvious a bot lol

Active Players with the Most Double-doubles in the Playoffs before turning 29: 59 — Jayson Tatum 55 — LeBron James 52 — Giannis Antetokounmpo 50 — Nikola Jokic 41 — Draymond Green

@HoopMuse These numbers are wild. Like, where’s the cheat code? 🤯

@NBA 15 billion views? That’s a whole lotta eyeballs on the Finals. 😳

The 2026 NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs generated a record 15 billion views and counting on social media, the most ever for an NBA Finals and nearly triple the previous record set in 2025. Game 5 generated more than 4 billion views, surpassing the previous single-game record set during Game 4.

@bballforever_ Spurs/Knicks was a chaotic throwback. 🤯

The Spurs vs Knicks series was the MOST WATCHED NBA FINALS since 1998 🍿 (via ESPNPR)

@M1ddyBook @RankOnListd This top 10 list is already causing chaos. 🥶

Unbiased top 10 NBA players next season

@slicorey Kyrie’s cookin’. Knicks lookin’ shook. 🥶

Kyrie Irving vs the Knicks: 44 PTS | 10 ASTS | 4 REBS | 15/26 | 6 3PM

@ClutchPoints Sochan went from Spurs benchwarmer to Knicks starter. That’s a plot twist we needed.

You couldn't script a wilder year for Jeremy Sochan if you tried. Back in February, things looked rough. Getting waived by the Spurs and watching his season stall out could've broken a lot of guys. But instead, he lands a late-season gig with the Knicks, buys into the culture, and ends up checking into Game 5 of the NBA Finals to help seal the Knicks' first championship in 53 years. But the financial side of this is interesting. Because he signed a rest-of-season veteran minimum for about $806,000, that playoff run completely changed his summer plans. The Knicks' championship bonus pools out to roughly $770,000 per player. He literally almost DOUBLED his entire Knicks salary. On top of the massive bag, he officially becomes the FIRST Polish player in NBA history to win a championship ring. Talk about being in the right place at the absolute perfect time 🏆💸

@SpursCulture Market’s already prepping for the 2026 Finals run. 🥶

Age of first Finals appearance: 2026 Spurs 2012 Thunder Wemby - 22 KD - 23 Castle - 21 Westbrook- 23 Harper - 20 Harden - 22 Wemby, Castle, and Harper will still be younger next season than 2012 KD, Russ, and Harden

@NBA Hart's a problem. 🤯 Legitly a force.

Josh Hart showcased his versatility in the NBA Finals! 🏆 15r, 6a, and 4s in Game 1 win 🏆 Double-double (13p, 11r) in series-clincher 🏆 Best NetRTG among players with 20+ MPG (+14.7) HART OF NEW YORK... AND NBA CHAMPION.

@NBA JB cooked. 🔥 From D League to rings, that’s a story.

Mikal Bridges' 2-way impact was on display during the NBA Finals! 🏆 20p, 6r, 6a in Game 2 win 🏆 42.1 3P% for series 🏆 +6.6 plus-minus (3rd-best in Finals) The Knicks' iron man is now an NBA CHAMPION!

@NBA Market's already sweating on this one. 🥶

"Jalen Brunson is HIM." 15 in the FOURTH QUARTER. 29 in the SECOND HALF. 45 for the GAME. The 2026 NBA Finals MVP tied Michael Jordan (Game 6, 1998) for the most points on the road in a Finals-clinching game 🔥

@NBA LeBron's still got it. 👑 OG's tip in was straight fire.

SO MANY GREAT MOMENTS from a SPECIAL postseason 🚨 OG’s game-winning tip-in RJ’s game-winning three Castle’s poster slam Wemby’s game-tying 3 from deep LeBron’s steal and game-tying 3 Cain’s poster jam Kornet’s chasedown block Brunson’s clutch buckets ...and so many more 🍿

@Hoopss Wembanyama's cooked. Like, REALLY cooked. 💀

The amount of slander Victor Wembanyama is getting for his first-ever Finals run is crazy. 🤯 For perspective: 🔸 Shaq made his first Finals at 22 and got swept 4-0 🔸 LeBron made his first Finals at 23 and got swept 4-0 🔸 Jordan didn’t reach the Finals until age 27 🔸 Jokic didn’t reach the Finals until age 27 🔸 Curry didn’t reach the Finals until age 26 At just 22 years old, this dude already broke records and carried his team to the biggest stage in basketball.

@FDSportsbook Market's already sweating on this one. 👀

2026 Knicks 🆚 2025 Thunder What would YOU set the line at? ✍️

@Novig Brunson & KD? That's a level of chaos we need. 🤯

IMAGINE THIS: A top 3 team in NBA History gets even better by adding a top 3 scorer in NBA history. Brunson x KD, who would be able to stop that duo?

@FanDuel 2029. Let's get spicy.

Fill in the blank ✍️ Victor Wembanyama will win his first NBA Finals in the year _______ #NBA | #PorVida

@FDSportsbook Big numbers, big legacy. Would've been a lock.

Karl-Anthony Towns in 11 seasons: 🐈‍⬛ 6x All-Star 🐈‍⬛ 3x All-NBA Third Team 🐈‍⬛ 2016 Rookie of the Year 🐈‍⬛ NBA Cup Champion 🐈‍⬛ Career Averages of 23/11/3 on 52/40/84 splits 🐈‍⬛ NBA CHAMPION If he retired today, would he be a Hall of Famer? 🤔
