When introduced, Mayor Zohran Mamdani gave Sochan a big hug, laughing that Sochan was indeed still shirtless as he kept up the bit.<\/p>\n
Multiple members of the team were shown laughing in the background, including reserve guard Tyler Kolek, as Sochan posed for a picture with the mayor of New York City.<\/p>\n
Sochan has seemingly been shirtless since the title-clinching Game 5, after which Sochan was seen wearing goggles and partying at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio.<\/p>\n

At one point, Finals MVP Jalen Brunson was being interviewed by \u201cTODAY\u201d anchor Craig Melvin when a shirtless Sochan nearly slipped and knocked over an oversized mock Larry O\u2019Brien Trophy.<\/p>\n
Brunson flinched and had to stop his interview to make sure their reserve center didn\u2019t break anything. <\/p>\n

Sochan didn\u2019t play much for the Knicks, appearing in just 16 regular-season games, though he did get in two NBA Finals games during the historic Game 4 comeback and the series-clinching Game 5 win against the Spurs.<\/p>\n
He also appeared earlier in the playoffs in some mop-up duty games earlier in the playoffs against the Hawks and 76ers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jeremy Sochan has a flashy new ring, but a shirt still escapes him.
