Fan attendance in home games was prohibited until February 23, 2021, per an executive order from then-Governor of New York Andrew Cuomo.[2] The Knicks reopened Madison Square Garden to spectators on February 23.[3]

On May 3, with a 118–104 win over the Memphis Grizzlies, the Knicks clinched their first winning season since the 2012–13 season,[4] and on May 12, clinched their first playoff appearance since the 2013, ending their eight-year playoff drought.[5]

The Knicks faced the Atlanta Hawks in the first round of the 2021 NBA playoffs,[6] losing in five games.[7]

After the regular season, Julius Randle was named NBA Most Improved Player,[8] while head coach Tom Thibodeau was named the NBA Coach of the Year, becoming the first Knicks head coach since Pat Riley in 1992–93 to receive the award.[9]
