Scooter Braun attended game 4 of the NBA Finals alongside girlfriend Sydney Sweeney — but they didn’t sit courtside with other A-listers.
Braun, 44, revealed in an Instagram comment on Thursday, June 11, that Sweeney, 28, “surprised me with tickets” to the game, which is why they didn’t sit in celebrity row at Madison Square Garden.
The celebrity.land claimed that Sweeney was “pushed off” the court in a headline published on Thursday, which is what prompted Braun’s explanation.
The music mogul further explained that the seats Sweeney purchased were “in the same section” as Braun’s dad and brother. Sweeney bought the tickets “so I could share it with them,” he added.
“Let’s keep things positive and get One more!” Braun’s comment concluded.. “Greatest game of all time. Can’t stop smiling.”

The New York Knicks beat the San Antonio Spurs during Game 4 in NYC on Wednesday, June 10. Eagle-eyed fans were quick to clock Braun and Sweeney seated a few rows behind Taylor Swift, who attended the game with two of the Haim sisters and Mariska Hargitay.
Wednesday’s game was the closest Braun and Swift have been since their years-long business dispute started in 2019. At the time, Braun acquired Swift’s masters from her former record label, Big Machine.
Swift famously slammed Braun when discussing the situation on social media. In the years that followed, Swift started rerecording her backlog, creating Taylor’s Version of several albums — including Fearless, Red, Speak Now and 1989 — before obtaining ownership of her original catalog.
Scooter Braun is inserting himself in this narrative, one Taylor Swift likely never asked him to be a part of. Braun, 43, took to his Instagram Story on Tuesday, August 27, to reshare TMZ’s upload of pics from Swift’s trip to Rhode Island with her friends. “How was I not invited to this?!?” Braun wrote, […]
Swift announced in May 2025 that she had successfully bought back the rights to her music.
“I’m trying to gather my thoughts into something coherent, but right now my mind is just a slideshow,” she shared at the time. “A flashback sequence of all the times I daydreamed about, wished for, and pined away for a chance to get to tell you this news.”
Swift continued, “All the times I was thiiiiiiiis close, reaching out for it, only for it to fall through. I almost stopped thinking it could ever happen, after 20 years of having the carrot dangled and then yanked away. But that’s all in the past now.”
The singer noted that she has been “bursting into tears of joy” after hearing the good news.
“I really get to say these words,” she added. “All of the music I’ve ever made… now belongs… to me.”
When asked for a response to Swift’s business win, Braun stayed diplomatic.
“I wish everybody the best,” he told TMZ.
