Victor Wembanyama\u2019s aggression on the court was once again called into question as the San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks<\/a> played Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n

During the first half, Knicks All-Star guard Jalen Brunson was trying to<\/a> guard Wembanyama near the free throw line when the 7-foot-4 center put his hand on the back of Brunson\u2019s head and shoved him to the court.<\/p>\n

However, Wembanyama was never called for the foul and play continued with the Knicks in possession of the ball.<\/p>\n

Brunson immediately got into Wembanyama\u2019s face, and it appeared the Frenchman was smiling before the point guard got back to business.<\/p>\n

The incident was similar to one that occurred in Game 2\u2019s win for the Knicks on the road<\/a>, when Brunson\u2019s backup, Jose Alvarado, went to box out Wembanyama. Alvarado, who has comparable stature to Brunson, was wrapped up by Wembanyama and thrown away from the play.<\/p>\n

Once again, no foul call was made.<\/p>\n

The Spurs are known for their physicality, but many believed that Wemby should\u2019ve been called for fouls in these cases.<\/p>\n

San Antonio started this game red-hot, owning an 11-point lead after the first quarter, 33-22. But these Knicks have consistently shown their ability to come back no matter the deficit.<\/p>\n

After a second quarter run, the Knicks ended the locker room with a seven-point lead at halftime.<\/p>\n

Brunson was a main reason why that was the case, going 5-of-11 from the field for 15 points with three assists and one rebound.<\/p>\n

As for Wembanyama, he was an efficient 6-of-10 from the field for 15 points of his own, while hauling in four rebounds and dishing out three assists.<\/p>\n

The Spurs are trying to avoid a brutal 3-0 deficit in the best-of-seven series, while the Knicks are hoping they can keep momentum in the second half to have the chance at a sweep in their own building on Wednesday night in Game 4.<\/p>\n
