Taylor Swift<\/strong> enjoyed a high-profile night at Madison Square Garden this week, but Travis Kelce<\/strong> was noticeably absent from her side. Swift attended Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals with close friends while the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> star remained in Missouri for mandatory preseason training.<\/p>\n The pop superstar turned heads when she arrived at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night to watch the New York Knicks take on the San Antonio Spurs. Instead of attending with Travis Kelce<\/a>, Swift spent the evening with longtime friends Este Haim and Alana Haim. The trio joined a star-studded crowd that included Ben Stiller, Hailey Bieber, Kylie Jenner, and Timothee Chalamet, all of whom attended to support the Knicks.<\/p>\n Kelce remained in Kansas City to take part in a mandatory three-day minicamp at the University of Kansas Health System Training Complex. The training sessions began on Tuesday and concluded on Thursday, leaving him little time to travel during the week. The NFL commitment also appears to explain why Kelce missed another major Swift event just one day earlier.<\/p>\n On Tuesday night, Swift surprised fans by attending the premiere of Toy Story 5 in Los Angeles. She walked the red carpet in an eye-catching off-the-shoulder gown embellished with crystals while celebrating her involvement in the highly anticipated Pixar sequel. Swift also contributed an original song, \u201cI Knew It, I Knew You,\u201d to the film. Kelce could not attend the premiere because his minicamp obligations kept him in Kansas City.<\/p>\n According to a source, Swift\u2019s decision to attend the NBA Finals came down to one simple reason. \u201cShe\u2019s a huge fan of the Knicks and really wants to be there to support them,\u201d the insider told Page Six<\/a> ahead of the game. The source added that the singer planned to enjoy the evening with friends while cheering on New York during one of the season\u2019s biggest matchups.<\/p>\n Originally reported by Khushali Srivastava on R<\/a>ealitytea.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n The post Taylor Swift Had Knicks Fever, Travis Kelce Had Other Plans \u2014 Report<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Taylor Swift enjoyed a high-profile night at Madison Square Garden this week, but Travis Kelce was noticeably absent from her side.
