Kristaps Porzingis will likely be a hit at the Tribeca Film Festival.
“Porzingod,” a four-minute comedic short film, will hold its world premiere Thursday at the festival.
“Porzingod’’ was made by brothers Tyler and Conor Byrne, New York City filmmakers in their late 20s who grew up tasting the glory of the 1990s Knicks. It stars John Leguizamo, a frequent guest on Madison Square Garden’s celebrity row, and Adam Mucci.
In the film, the actors are seen bowing at a Knicks shrine. They pray to the basketball gods to bring the Knicks back from the dead via the rookie phenom Porzingis.
