Mamdani announces date for Knicks championship ticker-tape parade in NYC [View all]

he Knicks did it! New York has a championship basketball team once again after the Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs 4-1 in the NBA Finals.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced a ticker-tape parade in the teams' honor within an hour of their Game 5 victory in Texas. City Hall, he said, will also present the New York Knicks with Keys to the City.

“For more than 50 years, New Yorkers have waited for this moment," Mamdani said in a statement. "Through near misses, heartbreak and a hope that every year could be our year, this city never stopped believing in the Knicks. And this team fulfilled that hope with grit, resilience and heart — just like the five boroughs itself."

The parade and key ceremony will be held on Thursday, June 18.
