Trump Says Knicks Championship Run ‘Maybe the Greatest of All Time’ in Congratulatory Message

Jun 14, 2026·1 min read

President Donald Trump celebrated the New York Knicks’ NBA championship victory on Saturday, praising the team’s remarkable postseason run and singling out several players for their standout performances.

Posting on Truth Social, Trump offered congratulations to Knicks owner James Dolan and the organization following the franchise’s title-winning season.

“Congratulations to Jim Dolan and the New York Knicks!!!” Trump posted.

The president described New York’s journey to the championship as one of the most impressive playoff performances ever witnessed in professional basketball.

He called the Knicks’ remarkable playoff run “maybe the greatest of all time.”

Trump also highlighted several members of the championship roster, reserving special praise for star guard Jalen Brunson, whom he said had emerged as one of the league’s premier players during the postseason.

“Tonight, a superstar was born, his name is Jalen Brunson, and there are others, including Karl-Anthony Towns OG Anunoby and, great patriot, Mitchell Robinson!” he wrote.

The president has followed the team closely throughout its playoff run. Last Monday, Trump attended Game 3 at Madison Square Garden, where he watched the Knicks continue their march toward what ultimately became a championship season.
