Summary

  • Game 3 at San Antonio’s AT&T Center is expected to feature Timothée Chalamet in the crowd as New York tries to clinch the final win needed for the NBA title.
  • The 30-year-old actor has become one of the Knicks’ most visible celebrity supporters during their playoff surge, with Madison Square Garden drawing a string of A-list attendees.
  • Chalamet’s Knicks fandom predates his Hollywood rise: a 2010 post showed him, then 14, winning free tickets in a trivia contest with former Knicks Landry Fields and Andy Rautins.
  • That long-running support adds to the spotlight around a Knicks postseason run that has turned each game into both a championship test and a celebrity event.
