A or The
David is drafted by (a/the) gang that holds court on the lawn in front of his building.
If Gang has never been mentioned in the paragraph before this statement, how do i decide to use a or the before gang? Thx.

Will Leung David is drafted by (a/the) gang that holds court on the lawn in front of his building. This sounds like a brief description of a television show that you might see in a TV guide. Absent any other context, I'll assume that's the context.

- In that case you would see "a gang" if the gang were new to the TV show in this episode, and you would see "the gang" if the gang was well-known to the television viewer from previous episodes.
