Jose Alvarado is featured in a new AT&T commercial alongside Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, Patrick Ewing and John Starks. It’s the first commercial for Alvarado. “That’s what New York can do for you: get you in commercials,” Alvarado said. “My agent called me and said, ‘We’ve got a special thing, do you want to be in a commercial?’ I said ‘Yeah,’ I didn’t know who was going to be in the commercial at first. But the commercial came out pretty dope.”

NBA Communications: NBA CANCELS ATLANTA HAWKS' MARCH 16 IN-ARENA PROMOTION NEW YORK, March 9, 2026 - The NBA today announced that it has canceled the Atlanta Hawks' planned in-arena promotion for their game on March 16. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver issued the following statement: "When we became aware of the Atlanta Hawks' scheduled promotion, we reached out to Hawks leadership to better understand their plans and rationale. While we appreciate the team's perspective and their desire to move forward, we have heard significant concerns from a broad array of league stakeholders, including fans, partners and employees. I believe canceling this promotion is the right decision for the broader NBA community."

He spends his days quietly, according to sources close to him, with his family and friends in the Denver area, playing golf, watching games and communicating with a handful of NBA brethren. The terms of his release restrict him from traveling outside the United States, and any state or city other than Colorado, California, Maryland, Minnesota, Oregon, Washington D.C. or New York City.

What was it like when you heard you’d be joining the Knicks? Jose Alvarado: Honestly, it was bittersweet. Obviously, I love New Orleans. It’s a situation I was comfortable in. But if I had to go anywhere, I’m glad it was New York. This is where I’m from. This is the culture I was raised by. I know how much the Knicks mean to everybody out here, including my family. Just to be a part of what these guys are building is dope.

Grant Afseth: The Dallas Mavericks departed Indianapolis for New York City earlier for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Tipoff is slated for 7:30 p.m. EST/6:30 p.m. CST.

Marc Stein: The Nets are scheduled to take off soon from Atlanta for New York ... with the Mavericks expected to fly from Indianapolis to NYC in the noon range. Brooklyn hosts Dallas tonight at 7:30 PM ... with both teams traveling on gameday due to the blizzard conditions in the Northeast.

The blizzard is affecting everyone in New York, especially those trying to get home. The Nets, who blew a late lead in a loss at Atlanta on Sunday night, were unable to fly back after the game or on Monday morning due to the historic snowstorm, a source confirmed to The Post. With the snow still coming down in the city, the Nets practiced in Atlanta on Monday and planned to fly out Tuesday morning — just hours before they face the Mavericks at Barclays Center at 7:30 p.m.

One statistic keeps getting repeated as the Moda Center renovation funding story has escalated this month: It’s the oldest arena in the NBA that has not undergone a major renovation. About half a dozen arenas in the country are older, though, including New York’s Madison Square Garden, which opened in 1968 but has since been renovated twice. All of the other cities with arenas that were built in the ’90s around the same time as the Rose Garden—such as in Minneapolis, Salt Lake City and Phoenix—have been overhauled.

NBA Communications: NEW YORK, Feb. 12, 2026 - The NBA announced today that it has fined two teams related to the management of their rosters for recent games. The Utah Jazz organization has been fined $500,000 for conduct detrimental to the league related to the team's games against the Orlando Magic on Feb. 7 and the Miami Heat on Feb. 9. During those games, the Jazz removed two of the team's top players, Lauri Markkanen and Jaren Jackson, Jr., before the beginning of the fourth quarter and did not return them to the game, even though these players were otherwise able to continue to play and the outcomes of the games were thereafter in doubt. In addition, the Indiana Pacers have been fined $100,000 for violating the Player Participation Policy in connection with the team's game against the Utah Jazz on Feb. 3. Following an investigation, including review by an independent physician, the NBA determined that Pascal Siakam, a star player under the Policy, and two other Pacers starters, neither of whom participated in the game, could have played under the medical standard in the Policy, including by playing reduced minutes. Alternatively, the team could have held the players out of other games in a way that would have better promoted compliance with the Policy. "Overt behavior like this that prioritizes draft position over winning undermines the foundation of NBA competition and we will respond accordingly to any further actions that compromise the integrity of our games," said NBA Commissioner Adam Silver. "Additionally, we are working with our Competition Committee and Board of Governors to implement further measures to root out this type of conduct."
