The long wait is over! The New York Knicks closed out their first NBA championship in 53 years and the media capital of the world is still abuzz. Knicks fans in New York and around the world are still celebrating, and now they can own a constant reminder of this historic moment. Athlon Sports’ New York Knicks 2026 Championship Commemorative is available online now.
The collector’s edition chronicles the entire 2025-26 season for the Knicks, from start to finish. And of course, there’s a focus on the team’s historic playoff run.
The Knicks ended the regular season as the Eastern Conference’s No. 3 seed, but fell behind in their first-round playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks. Then they flipped the switch and went on an unbelievable run.
Eleven straight wins — three against the Hawks followed by four-game sweeps of the Philadelphia 76ers and Cleveland Cavaliers — sent the Knicks to the NBA Finals against Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs. After taking the first two games in San Antonio, the Knicks’ 13-game playoff win streak finally ended in Game 3.
And just when it looked like the Spurs would tie the series in Game 4, New York staged the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history. OG Anunoby’s game-winning tip-in put the Knicks on the brink. In Game 5, Jalen Brunson scored 45 points to lead the Knicks to victory and clinch his status as NBA Finals MVP.
It’s all here in stories, stats and vibrant photos. The Knicks are NBA champions. Pre-order your copy of the New York Knicks 2026 Championship Commemorative today!
