The NBA Finals remained in New York for Game 4 on Wednesday night, bringing another star-studded crowd to Madison Square Garden.
The Knicks edged the Spurs 107-106 on a go-ahead basket in the final five seconds, taking a 3-1 lead in the series. Game 5 is scheduled for Saturday.
Here are the politicians, business executives, celebrities, and sports personalities we spotted at the NBA Finals so far.
Taylor Swift and Mariska Hargitay
Taylor Swift was spotted courtside at Game 4 with fellow musicians Alana and Este Haim of the band Haim, as well as "Law and Order: SVU" star Mariska Hargitay.
The quartet arrived in matching Knicks-inspired shirts: "Stevie Knicks" for Swift and Hargitay, "Knickelback" for Alana Haim, and "Knickole Kidman" for Este Haim.
Hargitay, a longtime Knicks supporter who also attended Game 3, has a big fan on the home team. Knicks captain Jalen Brunson has previously spoken about being a fan of "Law & Order: SVU."
"I've always loved that show," Brunson said during a May 2025 episode of "The Roommates Show" podcast, which he hosts with his teammate Josh Hart.
Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan
Michael J. Fox, one of the Knicks' most devoted celebrity fans, attended Game 4 with his wife, Tracy Pollan.
Speaking to People in an interview published on Monday, Fox said he has a game-day ritual he never skips.
"I always get a fist bump from Spike [Lee] on the way to my seat and a big sloppy hug from Tracy Morgan," Fox said.
Adam Sandler
Adam Sandler, a longtime Knicks fan, was spotted at Madison Square Garden in an orange Knicks hoodie.

Jerry Seinfeld
Jerry Seinfeld and his wife, Jessica, were spotted courtside at Game 4.
Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner
Knicks supporter Timothée Chalamet, who has attended every game of the Finals so far, was back at Madison Square Garden for Game 4.
This time, he was joined by Kylie Jenner. The couple wore matching Chrome Hearts outfits inspired by the Knicks' team colors, as seen in a video uploaded on X by ESPN SportsCenter.
David Solomon

Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan took over Madison Square Garden at halftime of Game 4, delivering an energetic set that included hits such like "Wu-Tang Clan Ain't Nuthing ta F' Wit" and "Method Man."
Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor
Longtime Knicks fan Ben Stiller has attended every game of the NBA Finals so far, traveling to San Antonio for Games 1 and 2 before cheering on the team at Madison Square Garden for Games 3 and 4.
Stiller attended Wednesday's game with his wife, Christine Taylor, and the pair were seated courtside alongside Swift and the Haim sisters.
Spike Lee
Filmmaker Spike Lee hasn't missed a Finals game, making the trip to San Antonio before returning to Madison Square Garden for Games 3 and 4.
In an interview with ESPN on Monday, Lee said he had read that his seat for Game 3 could have fetched a hefty sum on the secondary market.
"It went down, but it was half a million," Lee said.
In 2024, Lee was recognized as a SuperFan by the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. He has held New York Knicks season tickets since 1985, per ESPN.
The filmmaker was also photographed posing with former Knicks guard Jeremy Lin, who attended the game.
Tracy Morgan
Like Stiller, Chalamet, and Lee, Tracy Morgan has been a constant presence throughout the NBA Finals. He was in San Antonio for Games 1 and 2, and was back in New York for Games 3 and 4.
Morgan has long been one of the Knicks' most outspoken celebrity supporters. In a May video with Complex Sneakers, Morgan said he bought the team two pairs of Nike Kobe 5 "Bruce Lee" sneakers each in 2024.
"Just to let them know I'm part of the fanbase and we appreciate what they do," Morgan said in the video.
Morgan recently lent his voice to special New York City subway announcements encouraging fans to take the train to Knicks watch parties and home games at Madison Square Garden.
Larry David and David Zaslav
Warner Bros. Discovery CEO and president David Zaslav was courtside with Larry David at Game 4. Both of them were also at Game 3 earlier this week.
In July 2024, The Athletic reported that the NBA had reached a new 11-year, $76 billion media rights agreement with Disney, NBC, and Amazon — a deal that ultimately brought Warner Bros. Discovery's 35-year partnership with the league to an end after the 2024-25 season.
At a Morgan Stanley conference in March 2025, Zaslav said Warner Bros. Discovery was better off investing in its own franchises rather than sports rights, which he described as a "rental business."
Celebrity sightings from Game 3
For Game 3, on Monday night, President Donald Trump was spotted at Madison Square Garden alongside his granddaughter, Kai Trump.
During a pregame interview on the "NBA Tip-off," NBA commissioner Adam Silver said that Trump was a guest of Knicks' owner James Dolan. This marks the first NBA Finals game attended by a sitting US president, per ESPN.
He wasn't the only politician in attendance: New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani was also spotted fist-bumping fans as he entered the arena, while Michael Bloomberg briefly found himself in the middle of the action when the Knicks' point guard Jose Alvarado tumbled into his courtside seat during a play.
Knicks fans Stiller, Lee, Morgan, and Chalamet were once again in the crowd after making appearances at Games 1 and 2. Stiller was with his wife, Christine Taylor, while Morgan brought along his former "30 Rock" costar Tina Fey.
Other New York icons in attendance included Jay-Z and Derek Jeter, along with former Knicks guard Jeremy Lin. Hargitay and her former "Law and Order: SVU" costar Christopher Meloni were also at the game on Monday night.
New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft was also courtside with Zaslav and David.
Celebrity sightings from Game 2
Game 2 of the NBA Finals took place on June 5, and there were several familiar faces back in the crowd, including Stiller, Lee, Morgan, and Chalamet — all of whom were also at Game 1.
Twelve-time NBA All-Star Chris Paul was among the attendees at Game 2. He played for the Spurs during the 2024-25 season and brought his son, Chris Paul II, to the game.
Celebrity sightings from Game 1
The NBA Finals began on June 3 at Frost Bank Center in Texas.
The Knicks, making their first Finals appearance in more than two decades.
Several notable Knicks supporters were in attendance, including Stiller, Lee, Morgan, and Chalamet.
They were joined by former New York Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist and NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal, one of the hosts of the NBA Finals pregame show "NBA Tip-Off" and the postgame show "Inside the NBA."
Disney board member Bob Iger, Disney CEO Josh D'Amaro, and ESPN chairman Jimmy Pitaro were also present at the game, together with Silver.
During the broadcast, the commentators for the night joked that the men made up a "murderers' row of executives." The NBA Finals air on ABC and are produced by ESPN, two Disney-owned networks.
