The New York Knicks are taking over “The Tonight Show” with a dedicated episode on Monday.

Fresh off their championship victory, the team’s starting five — Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, Josh Hart, OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges — will join Jimmy Fallon to celebrate their miraculous NBA finals run and taking home the franchise’s first title in 53 years.

The entire Knicks roster, head coach Mike Brown and other surprise guests will make appearances in the special episode. And Wu-Tang Clan, who headlined the Game 4 halftime show at Madison Square Garden, will take the stage for a musical performance.
