The New York Knicks are taking to the streets of the city.
After the team won their first NBA championship in 53 years, they came home to celebrate with another milestone moment.
To commemorate their win, Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Karl-Anthony Towns, Mikal Bridges and the rest of the team took part in the organization’s very first ticker-tape parade on June 18.
“I want to say thank you to Jim Dolan and the front office for believing in the kid no one else wanted,” Brunson, who was named NBA Finals MVP, said during the celebration. “We really did it, dog. Somehow, some way, I knew we were going to find a way to get this done.”
He added, “There’s a lot of people that have a lot of negative stuff to say. There’s a lot of people who have a lot of opinions, but when you prove ‘em wrong, you don’t have to say s–t to them.”
Meanwhile, head coach Mike Brown shared a few words, saying, “I want to thank everybody. I want to thank everybody for helping accomplish this great feat.” Addressing the fans, he continued, “This championship is about you guys. This is New York City’s championship.”
