What happened: New York moved into Day 3 of training camp as it prepares to open the 2026-27 season on Oct. 20. The defending champions are set to face Philadelphia on opening night.

Why it matters: Opening night starts the Knicks' first season as reigning champions and puts an early spotlight on how quickly the rotation takes shape. Camp work also comes after Tony Bradley joined the roster as New York kept shuffling its frontcourt depth.

What to watch: The next markers are roster cuts and lineup clues before the Oct. 20 opener. Philadelphia will provide the Knicks' first game setting after three camp days of prep.
