As fans settled into their seats, the excitement reached another level when the 27-year-old actress was spotted courtside. She was seen waving and blowing kisses to the camera. Right after the clip went viral, the internet did its thing.
Social media was set ablaze with one over the other hilarious comments. As for the game itself, the Knicks were looking to maintain their momentum after a solid 119-100 victory over the Atlanta Hawks.

With all sorts of crazy reactions, the Knicks really held fans on the edge of their seats. Towns came as a savior for the team and dropped 25 points, which also included 16 rebounds, six assists, three steals, and two blocks. Including him, the team’s core four- OG Anunoby, Jalen Brunson, and Mikal Bridges all contributed significantly.
