Jose Alvarado, the Brooklyn-born Knicks guard who just won a championship, is living his dream—and using it to inspire the next generation.

He keeps his neighborhood food spots close, honoring his roots, and credits his parents—especially his dad, a union electrician who moved the family to Flushing for his future—for setting him up for success.
