NEW YORK (AP) — New York is celebrating the Knicks in classic style. The city is throwing a ticker-tape parade Thursday for the team that brought home the NBA championship that fans have longed for since 1973. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has predicted that the parade might be one of the biggest such events in the city’s history. Viewing pens along the route were already full with thousands of fans less than three hours before the procession. Alicia Keys has been tapped to perform. The parade began at 10 a.m. near Battery Park and ends at City Hall, where the players will be honored with keys to the city.
