🚨 NOW: President Trump is heading into Madison Square Garden for Game 3 of the NBA Finals, the Knicks’ first home Finals game since 1999! 

The city is BUZZING. Security is locked down tight around Penn Station and MSG after the recent stabbing attack. Drones overhead, no bags allowed, fans told to show up early, and they even moved the official watch parties farther away from the arena.

Trump, the ultimate New Yorker, will be watching from a suite above the lower bowl. The Knicks owner (a Mar-a-Lago member and Trump donor) invited him. Tickets? Cheapest ones going for a wild $5,000 tonight.

New York City Mayor gets a regular (but still pricey) seat elsewhere in the house.

Players are warming up, the Garden is ready to erupt, and Trump, who was just 26 when the Knicks last won it all back in ’73, is about to get that classic NYC welcome. 

Last time he was here for UFC as President-elect? The crowd LOVED him.
