How to Watch Knicks Games
After a 53-year drought that included two solid decades of futility in the 2000s and 2010s, the New York Knicks mounted one of the most memorable championship runs in NBA history last season, dominating the Eastern Conference competition and then making comeback after comeback — including one from 29 down — to defeat the Spurs in the NBA Finals. What can Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, O.G. Anunoby and company possible do for an encore?
As befits a defending champion, the Knicks are scheduled for 34 games on national television this coming season, with 13 on ESPN/ABC (including a Christmas Day Finals rematch), 11 on NBCUniversal (including nine on the NBC broadcast network) and ten on Prime Video. New York is also the defending NBA Cup champion, meaning a couple of additional Prime Video games are possible if they mount a repeat run.
Locally, Knicks games will again air on MSG Network. In a change this season, all MSG Network events are available to stream exclusively via DAZN (pronounced “Da Zone”), replacing the Gotham Sports app. Viewing options presented below:
