The US president, a longtime Knicks fan, attended as the guest of team owner James Dolan as New York hosted their first NBA finals game since 1999. Trump entered the arena amid a heavy security presence. He watched the game from the owner’s box above center court, while Secret Service personnel commandeered the neighboring suites on either side. Also in the box were Dolan, interior secretary Doug Burgum, transportation secretary Sean Duffy and Trump’s granddaughter Kai. Later in Monday’s game, which the Knicks lost 115-111, Trump appeared to fall asleep. #trump #nba #knicks #spurs #msg #donaldtrump
