Franchise History
The New York Knicks are one of the NBA's most iconic franchises, founded in 1946 as a charter member of the Basketball Association of America. They won NBA championships in 1970 and 1973 under coach Red Holzman. The 1990s Knicks, led by Patrick Ewing, reached the NBA Finals in 1994 and 1999. After two decades of struggle, the 2025-26 season marks a historic renaissance with the addition of Karl-Anthony Towns alongside Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges.
