Charles Oakley attends Knicks game in Cleveland as Cavs’ guest

CLEVELAND — Charles Oakley attended his first Knicks game since being thrown out of Madison Square Garden two weeks ago. He sat with Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert in the front row right next to Cleveland’s bench.

“I’m rooting for a good game,” Oakley said.

Oakley, who is from Cleveland, has been publicly feuding with Knicks owner James Dolan, after he was removed from the Garden by team and Garden security during a Feb. 8 game against the Clippers.

The beloved former Knick was dragged out of the arena, arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault and criminal trespassing.
