The Los Angeles Lakers, who raised a banner for winning the inaugural NBA Cup, could take cue from the Knicks, per Chris Haynes.

The Los Angeles Lakers were the winners of the inaugural Emirates NBA Cup back in 2023 with LeBron James being the first ever NBA Cup MVP. In celebration of the accomplishment, the Lakers would hang a banner in the rafters of the Crypto.

After winning the NBA Cup on Tuesday night, the Knicks will not be raising a banner for the victory at Madison Square Garden.

Unlike the previous Emirates NBA Cup winners, the Los Angeles Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks, the New York Knicks won't raise a banner.

“The New York Knicks will not raise an NBA Cup championship banner at Madison Square Garden, sources tell ESPN,” Charania reported. “The Lakers and Bucks raised banners for NBA Cup titles over the last two years. Knicks will celebrate with home fans Friday.”

Giannis Antetokounmpo has become the subject of NBA trade rumors after he scrubbed his social media accounts of nearly all mentions of the Bucks.

The NBA announced that Los Angeles Lakers superstar Luka Doncic was named to the Emirates NBA Cup All-Tournament team.

One person who was taken aback by that decision was none other than former NBA big man Dwight Howard, who took to X, formerly Twitter, to relay his thoughts. “I’m going to be second hand embarrassed if the Knicks don’t raise the NBA Cup Banner then don’t make it to the championship this

Markeiff Morris felt that Lakers star LeBron James didn't get enough respect from the team last season in the wake of the Luka Doncic trade.

The trade speculation surrounding Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo has been heating up in recent weeks, but the team reportedly isn't motivated to deal him away.
