Watch: Army veteran’s face lights up as Knicks surprise him with service dog

The Knicks had a special surprise for Army sergeant Luciano Yulfo at Wednsday’s game.

The best moment of an otherwise forgettable Knicks-Nets game on Wednesday came during a timeout in the second quarter. 

Sgt. 1st Class Luciano Yulfo served 36 years in the Army and has had to wait 18 months for a service dog. Not only did the Knicks present Yulfo with a customized jersey, the team also helped him finally get the dog he needs.

“It was like a dream,” Yulfo told MSG’s Rebecca Harlow later. “I couldn’t even talk, that’s how excited I am to have him.”
