Several prominent New York Knicks celebrity supporters traveled to San Antonio's Frost Bank Center for Game 1 of the 2026 NBA Finals on June 3, providing the visual confirmation the question required. Ben Stiller sat courtside, while Timothée Chalamet, Spike Lee, Tracy Morgan, and rapper Fat Joe occupied rows immediately behind him. Comedian Pete Davidson, former New York Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist, and New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart were also photographed in attendance.
Multiple outlets, including Deadline, Yahoo Sports, and the New York Post, published photo galleries of the celebrity section within hours of tip-off, leaving no ambiguity about who made the trip.
The Knicks rewarded the traveling contingent. New York trailed by as many as 14 points before rallying in the second half, with Jalen Brunson scoring 13 of his 30 points in the fourth quarter to seal a 105-95 road victory over the San Antonio Spurs. The win extended New York's playoff winning streak to 12 consecutive games and gave the Knicks a 1-0 series lead.
The celebrity turnout reflected the pattern established at Madison Square Garden throughout the Knicks' playoff run, where Stiller, Lee, and Chalamet have been consistent courtside fixtures.
