However, standing in their way are a formidable New York Knicks side
Jalen Brunson and Ali Marks
Brunson is New York’s talisman on the court, but away from the hardwood, he has relied on his rock, Ali Marks, since their days at Adlai E. Stevenson High School in Illinois.
The star guard returned to their old high school gym in 2022 to propose to Ali, creating a full-circle moment where their relationship first began.
The childhood sweethearts officially tied the knot in 2023 and expanded their family two years later with the birth of their son, Jordyn James.
Karl-Anthony Towns and Jordyn Woods
The Knicks’ towering center has been a powerhouse in the playoffs, supported all the way by his long-time partner and famous influencer Jordyn Woods.
The pair first met through mutual friends during the pandemic in 2020, watching their relationship quickly blossom during the lockdown.
After nearly four years of dating, the former best friend of Kylie Jenner accepted a romantic proposal from the star big man back in December.

Josh Hart and Shannon Phillips
Josh Hart’s enduring romance with Shannon Phillips started back in Maryland when the high school sweethearts were just fifteen years old.
Shannon excelled as a standout college soccer player, and the dedicated couple successfully navigated a long-distance relationship for years.
She graduated as a registered nurse in 2020 before Hart proposed, and the couple now share twin boys who are regulars at Madison Square Garden.
Jeremy Sochan and Mya Mills
No matter the outcome, Knicks power forward Jeremy Sochan is guaranteed a ring from these Finals, after being waived by San Antonio earlier in the season.
Away from his team switch, the Polish-American star had been dating prominent British model Mya Mills, and had been seen with her throughout the season.
Reports suggest that the couple have been together for just over a year, with Mya recently taking to social media to announce that she is expecting a baby.
However, their current status is unclear after the model unfollowed the NBA star across her social platforms shortly after sharing her pregnancy news.
