Knicks Champions With Jersey Roots

The Knicks just won it all—and their championship glory has deep Jersey roots. KAT, born in Edison and raised in Piscataway, got his start at Saint Joseph in Metuchen, where he was named Gatorade Player of the Year in 2014. Point guard Jalen Brunson, from New Brunswick, spent his youth in Cherry Hill while his dad played for the Sixers. These hometown heroes are bringing Garden State pride to the national stage—and fans can catch KAT in Jersey City this Tuesday at Dick’s House of Sport for a meet-and-greet. It’s a sweet reminder that greatness can rise from anywhere, and these champs are staying connected to the roots that helped them get here.
