Forbes released its 2019 version of the 50 most valuable sports franchises in the world on Monday, and all 50 teams have a value of at least $2 billion. 

Six New York teams made the cut, with two of those teams (Yankees and Knicks) leading their respective sports. No NHL or MLS teams made the top 50, although the Rangers are the highest-ranking hockey team at 72 with a value of $1.55 billion. 

Here are the local rankings, which are based on Forbes' published valuations over the past 12 months:

 

2. New York Yankees ($4.6 billion)

5. New York Knicks ($4 billion)

T-10. New York Giants ($3.3 billion)

21. New York Jets ($2.85 billion)

37. Brooklyn Nets ($2.35 billion)

T-38. New York Mets ($2.3 billion)

The Giants are tied with the Los Angeles Dodgers as 10th most valuable sports franchise and are third most valuable among NFL teams. They still rank behind the Dallas Cowboys ($5 billion) who are atop the list for all sports teams and the New England Patriots, who rank seventh overall at $3.8 billion.
