Anthony Mason can still pack the house.
Mason traveled a long road to become a much-beloved Knicks forward in the mid-1990s, and on Thursday he was remembered and honored by a near-capacity crowd at its starting point, the gymnasium at Springfield Gardens Educational Campus in Queens. Mason was feted by former Knicks teammates, family, the PSAL A champion Golden Eagles and the student body as the court was named for the school's most decorated basketball alumnus.
Let it be known that the first event on "Mase Court," as it is now called on the banner that hangs above it, brought out a throng.
