After the New York Knicks handed the San Antonio Spurs a Game 4 loss on Wednesday night, Knicks fans served Wembanyama an unwanted breakfast.
“Wemby” had just left the Spurs’ team bus and was heading to the team hotel when a Knicks threw an egg at San Antonio’s center.
The yet-to-be-identified fan was part of a large contingent of raucous Knicks fans who camped outside the Spurs’ hotel, waiting for an opportunity to see the visiting Spurs with boos and chants of “Knicks in five.”
The egg grazed the 7’5 Wembanyama’s head, and he reacted immediately, briefly pausing, clearly surprised that someone was trying to walk sunny side up on his dome hours after he had collected 24 points and 13 rebounds in a 107-106 loss inside Madison Square Garden.

Will the New York Knicks win the NBA Finals in 2026?
After San Antonio’s Game 3 loss, Wembanyama told media members, “It feels like we’ve worked too hard and are giving up on our leads. It’s that simple. It hurts.”
Wemby alluded to a Spurs lead that rose as high as 29 points before faltering.
In the finals, Wembanyama averaged 28.3 points, 10.5 rebounds and 3.3 assists through four games. His individual play has been phenomenal. But if he and his teammates don’t buckle down — especially after a particularly brash and vocal first half of Game 3 — they’ll have egg on their faces to go along with Wemby’s head.
