Longtime MSG photographer George Kalinsky receives award

A Madison Square Garden legend has received a great career honor. Via the NY Post:

It’s been a tough season away from the World’s Most Famous Arena for the Garden’s legendary photographer George Kalinsky.

But the season had a happy ending when Kalinsky got the phone call from the Basketball Hall of Fame this weekend informing him that he was named the 2021 recipient of the Curt Gowdy Media Award.

“As much as you think that this is going to be the greatest feeling, it’s even greater than that,’’ Kalinsky told The Post. “It’s something that they can never take away from you. The reality is even bigger when you’re told you made it.’’

The Knicks, meanwhile, are enjoying their best season in many years and will face the Hawks in the first round of the 2021 NBA playoffs.
