Timothée Chalamet Courtside for Knicks’ 22-Point Game 1 Comeback as Breakup Rumor Is Debunked

Broadcast clips confirmed Chalamet courtside, dispelling a viral parody breakup post.

Overview

  • Following Tuesday’s Game 1 at Madison Square Garden, the Knicks won 115-104 in overtime after erasing a 22-point fourth-quarter hole, and cameras caught Chalamet hugging Tracy Morgan and celebrating with Ben Stiller.
  • A supposed split between Chalamet and Kylie Jenner traced back to a parody social-media account, and outlets reported the viral claim was false.
  • Jenner’s attendance at Game 1 remained unconfirmed, with the Daily Mail saying she appeared to skip the game and other reports not verifying whether she was there.
  • Hours before tipoff, Chalamet posted an Instagram Story from a plane with a Statue of Liberty emoji and the phrase “OTW,” hinting he was flying to New York for the game.
  • Chalamet is a longtime Knicks fan who frequently sits on celebrity row with Jenner during the playoffs, which helps explain why broadcast shots and social posts about their status draw so much attention.
