The New York Knicks said they appreciate Taylor Swift’s long-standing support after two of its guards called her the “fakest” celebrity fan. Earlier in the week, rookie guard Tyler Kolek described Swift’s courtside presence as “performative” during a livestream, prompting the team to issue an apology.

The remarks followed a TikTok video in which Kolek and fellow guard Miles McBride labeled Swift the “fakest” celebrity fan. The Knicks’ statement underscored the organization’s gratitude for Swift’s repeated attendance at games, while the players’ comments sparked a brief controversy that the franchise moved quickly to address.
