Taylor Swift at Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and the New York Knicks on June 10, 2026 in New York City. Dustin Satloff/Getty Images Taylor Swift, who’s been spotted sitting courtside at Knicks games in the past, showed her support for New York’s team while wearing a “Stevie Knicks” tee alongside Alana and Este Haim when she arrived at Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday. The Knicks are playing against the San Antonio Spurs.
Swift was often seen at Knicks games in the mid 2010s. More recently, the singer and her football-playing fiancé, Travis Kelce, were spotted sitting courtside at the Eastern Conference Finals in May when the Knicks were playing the Cleveland Cavaliers.

“Not a lot of teams have been able to get Taylor to wear a jersey, and the Knicks did,” Kelce said on his New Heights podcast in May, according to Sportsnaut. “Tay’s got a lot of New York ties, so when it came down to like going to the Cavs game, she was kinda like, ‘Oh nice, they’re playing the Knicks, like sweet! I’ve seen them play before.'” (Kelce, who has Ohio roots, was rooting for the Cavs.)
In 2014, she told Time that she was “totally” a Knicks fan after moving to New York. When the interview commented that they weren’t playing very well at the time, she shrugged it off. “I love them, though,” she said. “Why does that matter? … I’ve always had this sort of love of the Knicks, just because Amar’e [Stoudemire, who retired from the NBA in 2016] is so cool. And also I performed at the Knicks’ — at Madison Square Garden’s — Kids Talent Competition at halftime when I was 12 or 13. And ever since then I’ve had this kind of sparkly, magical opinion of Madison Square Garden and the Knicks, since they let me sing when I was a little kid.”
