A teenager was in a coma after being assaulted during celebrations outside Madison Square Garden after the Knicks' Game 4 victory.

The 17-year-old victim was approached by a group of people and engaged in an argument over the Knicks, the New York City Police Department told KSAT, though it was unable to confirm what was said between the people involved.

After the argument, NYPD said one of the people in the group began punching and kicking the teenager's head and body.
