The New York Knicks have two players competing for the United States in the second round of the 2023 FIBA World Cup (Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart) and one player competing for Canada (RJ Barrett). Evan Fournier and France lost both games in the first round and were eliminated from advancing to the second round, and instead competed in the classification round.

In the second round, the United States is in Group J with Lithuania, Montenegro, and Greece. Canada is in Group L with Spain, Brazil, and Latvia.

For Knicks fans on the East Coast, most of the start times for the games in the second round involving the two countries aren’t too early, with the exception of the United States’ first game against Montenegro on Friday, September 1.
