The New York Knicks mustered one of the best comebacks this season against the Miami Heat on November 24. They made a historic 4th quarter comeback during the in-season tournament encounter after trailing by 21 points in the third quarter. Supermodels Emily Ratajkowski and Irina Shayk were also present in Madison Square Garden to witness the matchup.
Unfortunately, the pair decided to leave before the game ended and missed the Knicks’ historic comeback. After disrespecting the Knicks by leaving early, Emily Ratajkowski was denied a huge honor at MSG.

Madison Square Garden is one of the most historic sports arenas in history. Some consider it the Greatest sports arena of all time. Unfortunately, supermodel Emily Ratajkowski missed her opportunity to get free MSG tickets for the Rangers game. She was denied the free tickets after she disrespected the Knicks by leaving early during their epic comeback against the Miami Heat. Emily was sitting courtside with Irina Shayk during the in-season tournament matchup between Miami and New York. The Knicks fell into a 21-point hole as Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo went off early in the game.

However, Jalen Brunson and Immanuel Quickley’s 4th-quarter heroics got them back in the game. The Knicks won the game 100-98. That was arguably the Knicks’ best game of the season, and Emily Ratajkowski decided to leave the arena before the game ended. The supermodel is still welcome in Madison Square Garden if she purchases her tickets.
But it won’t be easy to bag courtside tickets at MSG because they are very highly-priced and usually sold out within minutes.

The New York Knicks are having a good season
It will be even more difficult for Emily Ratajkowski to secure courtside tickets at MSG as the Knicks are having a great season. They are 6th in the Eastern Conference standings with a 14-11 record. Despite not making any big changes this off-season, the Knicks have a solid team that might make it to the playoffs again. Jalen Brunson has taken up the role of their franchise player and has played great all season. He is averaging 25.5 points and 5.9 assists so far.
Brunson put up a career-high 50 points against Kevin Durant and Co. on Friday while going perfect 9 of 9 from beyond the arc. With Julius Randle, Immanuel Quickley, RJ Barrett, and more in decent form, the Knicks have a legitimate chance at making a deep run in the playoffs. They might still be a few pieces away from contending for the Championship. Unfortunately, Emily Ratajkowski will have to pay a hefty price to enjoy the Knicks games live for the rest of the season.
