On top of the arrests, San Antonio Spurs star center Victor Wembanyama found himself dodging an egg tossed from the crowd, apparently by a Knicks fan.

As players made their way back to their hotel just south of Madison Square Garden, a crowd gathered around them. Video circulating online shows one egg sailing over Wembanyama's head while another splattered against a nearby street sign.

There's been no indication of arrests or any police action connected to the incident.

Game 5 of the NBA Finals is scheduled for Saturday. A victory by the Knicks on Saturday in San Antonio would give the team their first NBA title in 53 years.
