President Donald Trump ‌plans to attend an NBA Finals game—or two—next week in New ‌York at the invitation of Knicks owner James Dolan.

“The answer is yes,” Trump said Thursday of attending the league championship series between the Knicks and the ‌San Antonio Spurs. “(Dolan) has invited me, and I’m going. I’ll be ⁠there. It could be Monday (for Game 3). Maybe I’ll do both (with Game 4 on Wednesday).”
