The 2026 NBA Finals have arrived with Game 1 between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs tipping off on Wednesday (8:30 p.m. ET on ABC) at the Frost Bank Center.
The Spurs are looking to start a new dynasty behind Victor Wembanyama by winning their sixth title in franchise history. The Knicks, on the other hand, carry the hopes of New York's basketball faithful on their shoulders, as they try to win the franchise's first title since 1973.
From pregame fashion to the vibes of San Antonio coming to life for another potential championship run, here are the best sights and sounds from Game 1.

The time is now, and the stars are setting the bar high early on in their arrivals. Wembanyama styled a custom denim jacket over a traditional white shirt and black, while Knicks guard Jalen Brunson kept it simple with a navy matching set.
