Taylor Swift, Hailey Bieber lead large list of A-listers on celebrity row at Knicks-Spurs Game 4

Madison Square Garden’s Celebrity Row was stacked for Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals.

Taylor Swift was in the building with best friends Alana and Este Haim after Page Six reportedthat the 14-time Grammy winner was attending Wednesday’s game between the Knicks and the Spurs.

Swift, who owns multiple properties in New York City, and fiancé Travis Kelce, a veteran tight end for the Chiefs, reportedly shelled out about $3 million dollars to rent MSG for their July 3 wedding.

The couple also attended Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals series between the Knicks and the Cavaliers in Cleveland last month. New York completed a four-game sweep of Cleveland.

Knicks diehards — comedian Tracy Morgan, director Spike Lee, and actors Ben Stiller and Timothée Chalamet, along with girlfriend Kylie Jenner — all were in attendance.

Celebrity row regulars, actress Mariska Hargitay — aka, a close friend of Knicks star point guard Jalen Brunson — rappers Fat Joe and Jadakiss, late night host Jimmy Fallon, actor Steve Schirripa, actress Edie Falco and actor Micheal J. Fox, occupied their usual courtside seats.

Giants’ quarterback Jaxson Dart, backup Jameis Winston, running back Tyrone Tracy, running back Cam Skattebo, receiver Odell Beckham, tight end Theo Johnson and former two-time Super Bowl champ with Big Blue, Lawrence Taylor, were all there, as well as Jets owner Woody Johnson.

Other notable celebs in attendance included Hailey Bieber, Adam Sandler, Tate McRae, Amy Schumer, Chris Rock, Liam Neeson, Whoopi Goldberg, Billy Crystal, Matthew Modine, Julianne Moore, Jimmy Fallon and Jerry Seinfeld.

The heightened security measures that were in place outside of MSG for Monday’s Game 3 — when President Donald Trump attended and sat in a suite with Knicks owner James Dolan — rolled over to Game 4, the New York Police Department said in an advisory.

Fans were instructed to leave their bags at home and arrive early to be screened in the secure zone, which was set up around the arena.

The watch party for Game 4 outside of MSG was a ticketed event with only one entrance and no reentry, per the NYPD.

The rematch of the 1999 finals, a 4-1 series win by the Spurs, has New Yorkers celebrating all over the city — with some contributing to chaos fueled by the rivalry.

After San Antonio’s 115-111 road win over New York in Game 3, Spurs players were greeted with boos from a crowd of people waiting outside the Ritz Carlton in New York on Tuesday.

This came after massive brawls broke out in the street outside of a NBA Finals watch party at Bryant Park after San Antonio cut the Knicks’ series lead to 2-1 in a thriller at Madison Square Garden.

A total of 21 people were taken into custody after an “incredibly reckless” post-game reaction that resulted in multiple injuries and people piled on top of police cars, the NYPD said.

Two people were charged with assault on a police officer, and five cops were hurt.

The 2026 NBA Finals shifts back to San Antonio for Game 5, with Game 6 taking place in New York. If necessary, a Game 7 will be hosted by the Spurs.
