San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks – Who will win the last game of 2025?

If you are looking for a San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks prediction, then we have got you covered! We are going to take a look at the upcoming match as the Knicks make the trek from New York all the way to San Antonio.

Wednesday 31st December will see the last NBA match of 2025 taking place at the Frost Bank Center in Texas. The game will be televised, so rest assured we will be providing all of the details you need to watch it on TV, if you are unable to get tickets to attend.

These teams have met a total of 105 times in regular season games, with the San Antonio Spurs taking 59 victories versus the New York Knicks’ 46 wins. However, some of these matches date back to the 1970s, so offer little insight into which way their next game might go, despite being interesting! When looking at more recent seasons, these teams have won one game apiece when playing each other, so that fact is of little use, too. This is also the first time the Knicks will have played the Spurs this season, so let’s take a look at their current form to see if we can find any clues there.

Team Form and Likely Line ups

San Antonio Spurs

The San Antonio Spurs are having a strong season so far, and are currently sitting at second position in the highly competitive Western Conference. Their recent performances have been very strong; they have won their last six games, most of which by a very convincing margin. For example, they beat the Washington Wizards 124 to 113 on 21st December, and thrashed the Atlanta Hawks 126-98 at the State Farm Arena on December 19th.

While several players have recently been out with injuries, the Spurs superstar player Victor Wembanyama has returned to play after his recent calf injury. Guard Stephon Castle also recovered more quickly than expected from a left hip flexor strain he suffered in mid-November, so things are looking positive for the San Antonio Spurs ahead of this game.

Likely San Antonio Spurs Line Up:

• Guards: Stephon Castle, Devin Vassell
• Centre: Luke Kornet
• Forwards: Victor Wembanyama, Harrison Barnes

New York Knicks

The New York Knicks are also in fine fettle at the moment, matching the San Antonio Spurs’ second position in their counterpart table, the Eastern Conference of the NBA. Point guard Jalen Brunson is on fire at the moment, having dropped a season-high 47 points against Miami Heat on the 21st November, with the Knicks ending the game with an impressive 132-125 win. While they lost their 19th December game to the Philadelphia 76ers 107-116, the New York Knicks have still won eight of their last ten games, so they are on great form.

When it comes to the New York Knicks lineup, Jalen Brunson is almost certainly going to be playing, as coach Mike Brown is currently struggling to keep his player’s minutes down, which is understandable given how fantastically well he has been playing of late. With Miles McBride’s ankle injury causing doubt over his presence in the lineup as his recovery is taken day-by-day, and Landry Shamet’s right shoulder casting doubt over his future in the league this season, these two will be notable absences in the team on New Year’s Eve.

Likely New York Knicks Line Up:

• Guards: Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges
• Centre: Mitchell Robinson
• Forwards: OG Anunoby, Karl-Anthony Towns
