The New York Knicks will hang a championship banner for the first time since 1973.
It's not the one they desperately covet, but Madison Square Garden will see an "NBA Cup Champions" banner after the Knicks' 124-113 win over the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday in Las Vegas.
Star guard and NBA Cup MVP Jalen Brunson admitted that the Cup title was "great, and we're going to enjoy this. But once we leave tomorrow, we're moving on."

It is very clear the Knicks have further goals in mind, and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani wants more, as well.
In response to the Knicks' X post celebrating their Cup championship, Mamdani said, "Next stop: June banner," referencing a victory in the NBA Finals.
The Knicks last won the NBA title more than 52 years ago and have not made it to the Finals since 1999. They lost to the Houston Rockets in 1994 and the aforementioned Spurs in 1999, prompting San Antonio’s dynasty.

Mamdani won the mayoral election in November, just days after the Knicks filed a cease-and-desist against him for using the Knicks logo in a campaign advertisement.
In a statement, the Knicks made it clear they "do not endorse Mr. Mamdani for Mayor."
"The NY Knicks have sent NYC Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani a cease-and-desist letter for using the NY Knicks logo to promote his candidacy. The Knicks want to make it clear that we do not endorse Mr. Mamdani for Mayor, and we object to his use of our copyrighted logo. We will pursue all legal remedies to enforce our rights."
The official White House account on X posted an image of the logo, which read "Trump Is Your President," hours after Mamdani defeated Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa to become mayor-elect of New York City, but they deleted it shortly after.
