Like all NBA teams, the New York Knicks are currently gearing up for the 2009-2010 season, which for them kicks off October 28 at Madison Square Garden.

But before the team permanently departs its Tarrytown training facility, it will hold a practice session in The Bronx at Fordham’s Rose Hill Gym on Saturday, October 17.

The practice, which is free and open to the public, will feature head coach Mike D’Antoni leading the team through drills, as well as performance by the Knicks City Dancers and the Knicks City Kids. Doors are at 11:15 a.m., and for Knicks season ticket holders, there is limited reserved seating.
