In 2018, the New York Knicks had two alumni enter the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame class: Jason Kidd and Maurice Cheeks. Both ex-players were short-term fixtures with the team, but their careers impacted the game with other organizations, including Kidd’s run to two NBA Finals with the New Jersey Nets.
Earlier this month, Carl Braun and Paul Westphal were inducted into the 2019 class.
For 2020, the Knicks may have yet another season with a franchise representative.
