President of the United States of America, Donald Trump, has dropped a huge hint that he will be present to watch the New York Knicks compete in the NBA Finals at the Madison Square Garden.

He made this known at a cabinet meeting to reporters after the Knicks booked their place in the NBA Finals after sweeping the Cleveland Cavaliers to win the Eastern Conference title.

Winning the Eastern Conference marked New York Knicks’ first NBA Finals appearance since 1999 when they lost to the San Antonio Spurs.

Aside dropping hints of a possible sighting at the Finals, President Trump spoke glowingly about the Knicks playoff run.

“I think I’ll be going to one of the games. I was invited by numerous people, and [New York Knicks owner James Dolan], and I think I’ll be going.”

“I was going to go Wednesday but [the Knicks] closed it out very quickly.”

“Boy what a team, they won all their games. They have some great players. It’s great to see it. The Knicks have really suffered for years” Trump said.
