Jose Alvarado has a WWE takedown of Victor Wembanyama in Game 4

Interestingly enough, it seemed like Alvarado may have had some help from Wembanyama himself in executing the takedown. After all, it did look like Wembanyama immediately went airborne after feeling Alvarado grab at his leg.

Here is another angle of the incident.

Alvarado was called for a foul on the spot but was not hit with a flagrant foul despite a review being initiated. Still, the Spurs made a three-pointer on that same possession, so Alvarado’s common foul gave Wembanyama an extra free throw, which the seven-footer then made.

The Knicks were already down 19 points at the time of the incident, so that might have been a frustration foul on Alvarado’s part. But you at least have to tip your cap to Alvarado for keeping his word in Game 4 after issuing a public warning to Wembanyama earlier this week.
