Westchester Knicks Tickets

The Westchester Knicks are the NBA G-League affiliate of the NBA's New York Knicks. The Knicks are one of the charter members of the NBA and have established themselves as one of the most historic franchises in the league. The Westchester Knicks were founded in April of 2014 and tipped off their first season in November of that year. In doing so, they became the first professional sports team in Westchester and the 18th member of the NBA's official minor league system. The fans were consulted regarding the team name and branding, resulting in the fan base choosing to have the team share the name of their parent organization, as well as their legendary blue, orange and white color scheme. The inaugural season was a bit of a struggle for the new franchise as they only posted 10 wins in the 2014-2015 season but they turned things around the next season and made the postseason. The Westchester Knicks have made three playoff appearances in their six-year history. Get your tickets to see the Westchester Knicks today at StubHub.
