Taylor Swift was one of the biggest names at Madison Square Garden during the Knicks’ 107-106 win over the Spurs in Game 4 of the NBA Finals. Swift is a longtime Knicks fan and has made several appearances during their games in the past.
Before Game 4, Swift showed up for the Game 3 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals on May 23. However, on Saturday, an X account reported that Taylor Swift has been banned from attending Game 5 in San Antonio.
Thanks for the submission!

The post has gone viral, amassing over 608,000 impressions and fooled some fans.
“As a Knicks fan, I thank the Spurs for that,” one fan commented.
“She’s bigger bigger than it; they fear it will be about her,” another fan said.
“Taylor will respond by buying the Spurs and moving the team to Nashville,” another fan commented.
However, the report is nothing but engagement bait. The X account, Hoops Crave, that reported the news is a parody account. They are infamous for tricking fans with outrageous posts. There is no confirmation that Swift will be making an apperance for Game 5 that has the potential to be the closeout game for the Knicks.
When and Where to watch Spurs vs. Knicks Game 5?
The Spurs will host the Knicks for Game 5 of the NBA Finals at the Frost Bank Center on Saturday. Fans hoping to catch the game could buy tickets and visit the Frost Bank Center.
Fans hoping to catch the game from home can watch the broadcast on ABC. The game’s online stream will be available on ESPN Unlimited with a $29.99 monthly subscription. Other streaming options include DirecTV, Fubo and Sling. The game will tip off at 7:30 p.m. EST.
It is one of the most important games for the Victor Wembanyama-led squad this season, as the stakes couldn’t be higher. If they lose, the Knicks lift the championship after going over half a decade (53 years) without silverware.
If they win, they get another chance to fight and initiate a comeback. If San Antonio completes a comeback, they would be the first team to climb back from a 3-1 deficit in the Finals since 2016.
Victor Wembanyama’s performance will be a key difference-maker in the decisive game. The Western Conference Finals MVP is averaging 27.8 points, 10.5 rebounds and 3.3 blocks in the Finals series.
