New York, NY – The New York Knicks fell to the San Antonio Spurs 115-111 at Madison Square Garden on Monday night, bringing a 13-game winning streak to an abrupt end.

A High-Stakes Night with High-Profile Guests

The game featured a notable guest list, including Timothée Chalamet, Cardi B, Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and President Donald Trump. President Trump's presence prompted significant security changes, including a canceled watch party and extended entry wait times for fans.
