According to Forbes Magazine, the Knicks are the NBA's most valuable team. The magazine's most recent franchise valuations state that the Knicks are worth $1.1 billion dollars.
The Lakers are second on this year's list, valued at $1 billion.
The Brooklyn Nets are ninth on Forbes' list, valued at $530 million.
