The Knicks, previously underrepresented at the NBA All-Star weekend, have made a resurgence since 2021. With a player participating in the All-Star game for the fourth time in five years, and newcomers entering events like the three-point contest, the team's profile is rising. Historical performances, such as Kenny Walker winning the Dunk Contest in 1989 and Gerald Wilkins' mixed results in the late 80s, reflect a rich yet sporadic involvement over the past 40 years, showcasing both challenges and promising moments for the franchise during this marquee event.
Kenny Walker avenged his teammate Gerald Wilkins in 1989 to become the first Knick to win the Dunk Contest, a highlight in Knicks' All-Star history.
Since 2021, the Knicks have significantly improved their representation at All-Star weekend, with Jalen Brunson participating in the three-point contest this year.
