President Donald Trump is set to attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden on Monday, where his New York Knicks will face the San Antonio Spurs. ESPN's Shams Charania confirmed the President's plans, which Trump had previously hinted at as a possibility after the Knicks swept the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Trump stated that Knicks owner James Dolan had invited him to one of the upcoming games in New York. Mayor Zohran Mamdani is also expected to attend the game but has indicated he will not sit with Trump. Mamdani is typically seen in the nosebleed seats at the Garden.
New York currently leads the series 1-0 after a comeback victory over the Spurs in San Antonio on Wednesday night. The series now shifts to New York for Game 3, with Trump's presence adding to the excitement. More details to follow.
