Trump plans to attend Knicks Finals Game 3 at Madison Square Garden on Monday, sources say [View all]

NEW YORK — President Donald Trump plans to cheer on the Knicks at Madison Square Garden at Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Monday, turning “The World’s Most Famous Arena” into a high-security frozen zone that will affect both basketball fans and everyday New Yorkers.

Multiple sources say that Trump will be attending Game 3. The president has said he was invited to attend a Knicks playoff game by the team’s owner, James Dolan, who has donated to Trump’s political campaigns.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani will also attend Monday’s game at MSG, but he wouldn’t say if he will be meeting Trump during his visit to New York.

“I will be in a very different section of the stadium, and I think we look forward to welcoming any New Yorker who is excited for the Knicks to have that chance to win that championship,” Mamdani said at an unrelated press conference Thursday.
