Our Favorite Outfits From Black New York Knicks Fans
New York has been buzzing ever since the Knicks ended their 53-year drought on June 13 by winning the NBA Finals in their fifth game against the San Antonio Spurs. And while the basketball team was killing it on the court, fans in the Big Apple were serving looks on the streets and at watch parties, showing their support in fly, vibrant outfits that refuse to go unnoticed. To celebrate the Knicks’ win and ahead of their parade in Manhattan on June 18, we’re looking at the best fits we spotted during the NBA Finals.
