Under the flash of the big city lights, the stars were out along with nearly 20,000 other fans for Victor Wembanyama’s MSG debut.
Wembanyama wasn’t the only debut of the night, as the Knicks also debuted their new city edition uniforms and court design. Remarkably in his 50th season in working for the NBA, Hubie Brown was on hand to call the color commentary for ESPN. Brown was on the same MSG sidelines as coach of the 1984 Knicks when a young Chicago Bulls rookie guard by the name of Michael Jordan made his MSG debut, exactly 39 years ago to the day.
