The New York Knicks carried their post-championship festivities onto late-night television on June 15, 2026, ceremonially lifting host Jimmy Fallon’s self-described “lucky” sneaker to the rafters of NBC’s “The Tonight Show.”
The on-air moment extended the team’s ongoing victory tour following its recent NBA title, adding a lighthearted twist by honoring Fallon’s courtside fandom. The shoe, which the comedian routinely showcased during the Knicks’ playoff run, was raised above the studio audience as part of the celebration segment.
The Knicks’ appearance on the program marked another public stop in the club’s citywide celebrations, which have included parades, media visits and fan events since clinching the championship.
