It\u2019s getting more and more physical.<\/p>\n

Spurs star Victor Wembanyama, who picked up a flagrant foul for a hard hit on Karl-Anthony Towns in Wednesday\u2019s historic NBA Finals loss to the Knicks, also got up close and personal with eventual Game 4 hero OG Anunoby.<\/p>\n

With San Antonio leading 41-22 at the end of the first quarter, Wembanyama broke free from defender Jeremy Sochan to set a screen for De\u2019Aaron Fox in an attempt to evade Anunoby\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n

The video, shared by The Post\u2019s Jared Schwartz, shows Wembanyama approaching Anunoby, jumping and lunging forward, landing awkwardly on top of the Knicks star\u2019s right leg.<\/p>\n

Neither player appeared to suffer any ill effects of Wembanyama\u2019s closeout, but the 7-foot-4 center bumped Anunoby several more times for the rest of the possession, and even directed a complaint toward a referee.<\/p>\n

No fouls were called on the play.<\/p>\n

After being down 29 points, New York staged the biggest comeback in NBA Finals history with a 107-106 win \u2013 but Wembanyama continues to be on the receiving end of vitriol \u2014 and eggs \u2014 from the Knicks faithful.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor those of you who don\u2019t think Wemby is dirty explain this without saying it\u2019s AI,\u201d WFAN host Craig Carton wrote on X about the Anunoby screen.<\/p>\n

\u201cDude tried to take OG\u2019s ACL,\u201d Buffalo Bills host Nate Geary wrote in response to the video.<\/p>\n

While the angle from ESPN\u2019s broadcast shows that Sochan might have shoved Wembanyama into Anunoby, any borderline physicality involving the French big man will be under a microscope.<\/p>\n

The MVP finalist has drawn the ire of Knicks fans after a hard foul on star Jalen Brunson in Game 3 on Monday.<\/p>\n

Wembanyama shoved Brunson to the ground in the first quarter of Monday\u2019s contest, while appearing to laugh, and was not called for a personal foul, much less a flagrant.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Everyone from President Donald Trump to Mayor Zohran Mamdani ripped the non-call on Wembanyama.<\/p>\n

Despite NBA senior vice president of referee development and training Monty McCutchen admitting a \u201cfoul was missed,\u201d the league elected not to issue a retroactive flagrant on Wembanyama, a ruling that now looms large for the remainder of the series.<\/p>\n

Entering the Finals, Wembanyama already carried two flagrant points for elbowing the Timberwolves center Naz Reid in the throat during the Western Conference semifinals.<\/p>\n

After being hit with a flagrant for elbowing Towns in the third quarter of Game 4, Wembanyama now carries three points \u2014 a fourth would trigger an immediate one-game suspension.<\/p>\n

If the NBA reviews the Anunoby play and issues a retroactive flagrant, Wembanyama would be suspended for Game 5.<\/p>\n

Carrying a 3-1 series lead, the Knicks will look to clinch the franchise\u2019s first title since 1973 as the teams return to San Antonio for Game 5 Saturday night.<\/p>\n
