President Trump is making a surprise return to New York City for Game Three of the NBA Finals, invited by Knicks owner James Dolan — a historic first for a sitting president at an NBA Finals game. Though he hasn’t been to Madison Square Garden in over a decade, Trump’s deep, decades-long connection to the Knicks — dating back to the ’90s when he was a regular courtside fixture — makes his presence feel both nostalgic and timely. The Knicks are on a 13-game winning streak and lead the series 2-0, igniting citywide excitement. While some worry his attendance might distract from the team’s momentum, others, including Mayor Adams and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, welcome his support. Silver even recalls seeing Trump at games before he entered politics, noting their shared birth year and Trump’s early advisory role in the arena’s sale. For New York, it’s a moment of unity — and for Trump, a chance to reconnect with a team he’s called home for decades.
