Timothée Chalamet joins celebrity Knicks fans at NBA Finals in San Antonio

Actor Timothée Chalamet was among a group of celebrities—including Spike Lee, Tracy Morgan and Ben Stiller—who travelled to San Antonio to support the New York Knicks in Game 1 of the NBA Finals against the Spurs. The Knicks later clinched a 1‑0 series lead with a dramatic comeback win in Game 2, marking their 12th straight postseason victory.

After the win, Chalamet posted on Instagram about the physical toll of cheering, noting he “iced his knees” and warned fans not to underestimate the wear and tear of following a playoff series.
