Summary
Donald Trump said he plans to go to Madison Square Garden on Monday for Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Knicks and Spurs.
The appearance would put the president at the Knicks' first NBA Finals home game in 27 years, with extra security expected around the arena.
Questions about the visit come as courts and politics shadow Trump in New York; Jimmy Kimmel mocked the trip as his first New York court appearance since his 34-felony conviction.
Ticket prices for Game 3 have climbed to about $9,000, a cost Trump brushed off by saying fans who cannot afford seats can watch on television.
