The New York Knicks' No. 0 has added one.

Morgan Calantoni, the longtime girlfriend of Knicks shooting guard Donte DiVincenzo, announced the arrival of their first child shortly after the latter posted one of the most impactful performances of his metropolitan career.

DiVincenzo was one of the headliners of the Knicks' 120-119 regular season-ending victory over the Chicago Bulls. It was an overtime game in more ways than one for DiVincenzo: not only did the Knicks require an extra five-minute session to secure the victory but DiVincenzo played all but 29 seconds in the busiest afternoon of his career. The first-year Knick had 25 points on 10-of-21 shooting in 52 minutes as he helped his new team secure the second seed on the Eastern Conference playoff bracket.

There's no rest awaiting DiVincenzo when he gets home, but he's more than likely perfectly fine with that: Calantoni shared a series of photos on her Instagram page showcasing their new baby boy, rounding out the montage with an image of a hoodied DiVincenzo pushing their arrival in a stroller while she walks their dog.

"Life is so much sweeter with you in it," Calantoni said in an accompanying caption.

DiVincenzo and Calantoni met in college, ironically on opposite sides of one of Pennsylvania's fiercest basketball rivalries: DiVincenzo was one of the Villanova Wildcats' backcourt stars while Calantoni was a cheerleader at Temple University.

The new dad DiVincenzo will be hard-pressed to get some rest before the Knicks' postseason quest tips off, but there's no doubt he'll be relied upon moving forward. DiVincenzo was one of the most pleasant surprises of the Knicks' season, posting a career-best campaign after he was brought in from the Golden State Warriors. The 2021 NBA champion set a new franchise record for most three-pointers in a single season with 283 and put up personal highs in scoring average (15.4) and success rate from deep (40.2) in his maiden voyage with the Knicks.

Time will tell when DiVincenzo and the Knicks will play again, but they'll find out who their first-round opponent will be on Wednesday, when the Philadelphia 76ers and Miami Heat battle for the right at Wells Fargo Center (7 p.m. ET, ESPN).
