From regulars Timothée Chalamet, Spike Lee, Ben Stiller and Tracy Morgan to surprise celebrity appearances, The Hollywood Reporter rounds up all the stars seen in this year’s NBA Finals.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year: NBA Finals season.
This year, the New York Knicks will face the San Antonio Spurs. The 2026 NBA Finals are particularly significant, as they mark the Knicks’ first trip to the championship round since 1999 — when they also faced the Spurs and lost in five games. The match is a rematch from nearly three decades ago.
The Finals united New York City, as Knicks fans flocked to the streets surrounding Madison Square Garden for outdoor viewing parties. Inside the court, celebrities were flocking to support their teams, including Knicks fans Timothée Chalamet, Ben Stiller, Spike Lee and Tracy Morgan.
But Monday night’s third game is expected to draw an even bigger star-studded crowd. Below, see all the celebrities spotted during the 2026 NBA Finals. (Note: This list will be updated after Game 3 and throughout the series.)
