Let the triangle jokes commence.

 

As a wave of teams unveiled jersey sponsors over the course of the offseason, the New York Knicks have now announced their sponsor for the upcoming season: Squarespace.

The Knicks are now the 17th team in the league to have announced a jersey patch sponsor, though the terms of the deal were not disclosed.

The deal indicates a new trend in the NBA, with e-commerce companies garnering more and more sponsorship deals. The Los Angeles Lakers jersey sponsor is Wish, the Golden State Warriors’ sponsor is Rakuten and the Philadelphia 76ers sponsor is Stubhub.
