It\u2019ll be a beautiful \u2014 if slightly humid \u2014 morning, with rain hopefully holding off for the duration of the procession.<\/p>\n

Every member of the team, plus the coaching staff, will be a part of the parade; Knicks legends Walt \u201cClyde\u201d Frazier and Patrick Ewing are also said to be joining. The parade culminates in a city hall celebration where Mayor Zohran Mamdani will give the team the keys to the city.
