Final Injury Report for Knicks-Spurs NBA Finals Game 1: Will De'Aaron Fox, Mitchell Robinson Play?

The San Antonio Spurs are at home Wednesday night as they host the New York Knicks in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

San Antonio enters Wednesday's game coming off a victory in Game 7 of the Western Conference finals over the Oklahoma City Thunder Saturday night to clinch their first NBA Finals berth since 2014.

In Saturday's victory over the Thunder, Victor Wembanyama led the way for the Spurs as he recorded 22 points and seven rebounds while Julian Champagnie added 20 points and six rebounds of his own.

The Spurs will try to grab another victory at home Wednesday as they look to take a 1-0 series lead over the Knicks.

New York enters Wednesday's contest coming off a series sweep over the Cleveland Cavaliers that ended last Monday with their victory in Game 4.

Karl-Anthony Towns led the way for the Knicks in their victory last Monday as he ended the game with 19 points, 14 rebounds and three assists while OG Anunoby recorded 17 points, seven rebounds and four assists.

While both teams are looking to pick up a victory in Game 1 of the NBA Finals Wednesday night, each may be without one of their key players due to injury.

Knicks Injury Report: Will Mitchell Robinson Play?

The Knicks have only one player listed on their injury report as they have listed center Mitchell Robinson as questionable.

New York has listed Robinson as questionable due to a fractured right pinky finger that he underwent surgery for last Thursday, though it has been reported that he is pushing to play in Game 1.

If Robinson is sidelined Wednesday, Ariel Hukporti and Mohamed Diawara could be in line for increased roles off the bench behind Towns.

Spurs Injury Report: Will De'Aaron Fox Play?

The Spurs enter Wednesday's game with a clean injury report as they have nobody listed on it, including guard De'Aaron Fox.

Of course, Fox suffered a right ankle sprain in Game 4 of their first-round series against the Minnesota Timberwolves but he has been able to play through the injury and he is off the injury report completely for Wednesday's matchup.

Fans can catch Game 1 of the NBA Finals between the Knicks and Spurs from San Antonio Wednesday night at 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
