Official site

The Knicks host the Phoenix Suns at Madison Square Garden on Tueday Jan 26 at.

Booker has a history of huge scoring nights at MSG, and the Knicks' second unit will be tested against a fast Suns bench. There is no regular-season atmosphere in the NBA like a winter night at the Garden, where the crowd reacts to every possession. Get there for warm-ups if you want to see the visiting stars up close before the lights go down.

What to expect

Doors open roughly 90 minutes before the 7:30 PM tip. Expect a full 19,500-seat building, a roughly two-and-a-half-hour game, and heavy crowds at Penn Station afterward. Chase Bridges seats give the best sightlines for the money; 200-level corners are the value play.

Good to know

  • Enter via 7th Ave or 8th Ave entrances; 33rd Street lines move fastest after tip-off.
  • Tickets via Ticketmaster; resale prices usually dip in the hour before tip except for marquee opponents.
  • MSG is cashless and bag policy is strict: small bags only, no backpacks.
  • Penn Station, 34th St-Herald Sq and 34th St-Penn (A/C/E, 1/2/3) are all under or beside the arena.
  • Date and time per the published NBA schedule; national TV can shift times, so re-check the day before.

Going? Keep it.
