The New York Knicks are headed into game three of the NBA Finals Monday night, and tensions are high. President Trump is descending on Madison Square Garden, which threatens to seriously mess with the Knicks’ juju — the official watch party outside of MSG has been canceled, there is “no walking” allowed in the area, and, to top it all off, the Secret Service has banned bags from the premises to keep the arena secure for its boss. Another casualty of Trump’s insistence on getting in on the action? Knicks WAG Jordyn Woods’s lucky bag, which may not be allowed into the building for the first time in the Knicks’ 13-game winning streak. Could this get any worse?
Woods, who’s engaged to Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns, has been touting an orange ostrich mini-clutch since game one of the playoffs. She told Vogue it’s a custom version of her Woods by Jordyn Tux Clutch Mini that she had made just for the offseason. And if it’s up to her, she will not be leaving it at home.
“I wore it for game one during one of my TikTok GRWMs, and ever since then we’ve kept winning, so now it’s officially become the lucky bag,” the 28-year-old told the outlet last month. “It’s gotten to the point where if people don’t see me carrying it during a close game, they start blaming me for changing the routine, so let’s just say the bag isn’t leaving my side anytime soon.”
And you know what? That’s still true. It’s unclear whether the Secret Service’s bag ban will apply to Woods, but luckily, this entrepreneurial woman seems to have a plan to smuggle it in regardless. In a video posted Monday ahead of game three, Woods shared that she’ll try to bring the bag in, but if she can’t, she’s also had it transformed into a pair of orange ostrich sandals. “One guys not stopping the show,” she wrote in the caption. Problem solved and good juju restored.
