New York City is showing some love for the Knicks by slapping players' names on street signs—at least temporarily. Mayor Eric Adams announced that select streets will get honorary co-names celebrating the team’s stars during their playoff push. Think of it as the city’s way of turning sidewalks into a hype squad.
What This Means: This isn’t just about basketball—it’s a quirky, fun way to rally civic pride around a team that’s got the city buzzing. Street co-naming is a New York tradition (remember "Seinfeld Way"?), and doing it for the Knicks taps into that shared excitement when a hometown team makes a deep playoff run. Plus, it’s free marketing for the city’s vibe as a place where sports and street life collide.
