Elmo and Jalen Brunson are cool.

The iconic “Sesame Street” character caught flak from Knicks fans earlier this month for posting a video on his official social media account saying, “Elmo hopes both teams have fun!” with four basketball emojis, referring to the NBA playoff series between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs.

Elmo’s fairweather message has amassed 27 million views on X, where fans roasted the furry red monster for not picking a side and displaying a lack of media literacy.
