The moment of truth has arrived and tonight is the NBA Lottery. Have you started your rituals for the night? If you’re a Knicks fan, how else can you help the gods be on your side? Here’s what some Knicks fans are doing to ensure that their team comes out on top.
By now, we’re sure that you saw that the Knicks have a 14% chance of getting the first pick of the 2019 NBA Draft. At the same time, this also includes a tie between the Cavaliers and the Suns. In conclusion, there’s no real guarantee and that is why Knicks fans everywhere have been performing some rituals. Here are some that have caught our eye.
