Monday’s edition of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” is dedicated to the hometown New York Knicks, who won the franchise’s first NBA Championship in 53 years.<\/p>\n

Ahead of Monday night’s broadcast, NBC shared a first-look at the episode.<\/p>\n

The photos find the team, accompanied by coach Mike Brown and longtime superfan Spike Lee, walking out with the Larry O’Brien Trophy.<\/p>\n

In official promotion for the episode, NBC also said to expect a chat with the starting lineup, appearances by the Knicks City Dancers, and a performance by Wu-Tang Clan. It is unclear if there will be other surprise guests beyond Spike Lee.<\/p>\n

The episode will air at 11:35PM ET\/PT on NBC; first-look photos follow.<\/p>\n
