Kendall Jenner's Appearance at Knicks-Celtics Game Stirs Attention
More than 19,000 fans filled Madison Square Garden on Monday night for the highly anticipated Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics, but many had their eyes on Kendall Jenner, who was in attendance.
The supermodel and reality TV star was joined by her sister Kylie Jenner and her boyfriend, actor Timothee Chalamet, making for one of the most talked-about trios in the arena. Kendall was wearing a white tank top, black leather pants, and a navy blue Knicks cap.

At the end of the night, the Knicks pulled off a 121–113 victory, with the Knicks now leading 3 -1 in the Eastern Conference Semifinals, sending the home crowd into a frenzy.
This isn't Jenner's first time catching a high-profile NBA game. Over the past years, she's made several appearances at major sporting events around the world. She was spotted courtside at multiple Knicks games last season, as well as at Lakers games in Los Angeles, where she's often seen cheering from the front row.
Outside of basketball, Jenner attended the 2024 F1 Miami Grand Prix and made her way to Paris for the 2024 Summer Olympics, where she was seen enjoying the women's gymnastics all-around at Bercy Arena.

College football's truly messy offseason, explained. Plus: Indy fights off the Knicks
The Pulse Newsletter 📣 | This is The Athletic's daily sports newsletter. Sign up here to receive The Pulse directly in your inbox. Good morning! Start a winning streak today. If this college football offseason has felt more exhausting than most, it's probably because three particular stories have refused to go away. Just a year after the College Football Playoff went from four teams to 12, the powers that be are in serious discussions about changing the format again. College sports are also a hot topic at the White House and on Capitol Hill, despite almost no actual news emerging from either place. And the massive settlement that's set to overhaul the economics of college athletics? Still somehow not done. What's the latest? Here's the extremely short version of each endless saga: Also, we're now in roughly the 423rd consecutive year of the SEC weighing whether to move from an eight-game conference schedule to a nine-gamer. At this point, my eyes glaze over at the first sign of this debate, and I am guessing yours do, too. Subscribe to Until Saturday. We will force that newsletter's writer to update you when the time comes, if it ever does. Pacers eliminate Knicks, earn Finals berth The Knicks had the Pacers on the ropes for 48 straight minutes in Game 5. A Game 6 loss at home for Indiana would've felt like a knockout blow considering a certain return to New York. But every time the Knicks punched last night, the Pacers punched back. And these relentless Pacers are now headed to their first NBA finals in 25 years.

Boston Celtics jersey history No. 20 - Tyus Edney (1997-98)
Boston Celtics jersey history No. 20 - Tyus Edney (1997-98) The Boston Celtics have had players suiting up in a total of 68 different jersey numbers (and have three others not part of any numerical series) since their founding at the dawn of the Basketball Association of America (BAA -- the league that would become today's NBA), worn by well over 500 players in the course of Celtics history. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Celtics Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team. With 25 of those jerseys now retired to honor some of the greatest Celtics to wear those jerseys, there is a lot of history to cover. And for today's article, we will continue with the 19th of 31 people to wear the No. 20 jersey, Boston guard alum Tyus Edney. After ending his college career at UCLA, Edney was picked up with the 47th overall selection of the 1995 NBA draft by the Sacramento Kings. The Gardena, California native would play the first two seasons of his pro career with the Kings before he signed with Boston in 1997. His stay with the team would span a single season, ending when he signed with a team abroad. During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Edney wore only jersey No. 20 and put up 5.3 points, 1.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.0 steals per game.

Knicks Urged to Pursue Shocking Offseason Roster Move
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Knicks have officially been eliminated from the NBA Playoffs. After losing in Game 6 to the Indiana Pacers by a final score of 125-108 on Saturday evening, they have come up two wins short of the NBA Finals. While the team put up a great fight, they simply were not good enough to knock off the Pacers. Now, they will head into the offseason with major questions about what to do next. On the outside looking in, the Knicks have an extremely talented roster. Led by Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, the front office went all-in on building a championship contender this season. How do they take the next step? Jalen Brunson #11 and Karl-Anthony Towns #32 of the New York Knicks in action in Game One of the Eastern Conference First Round NBA Playoffs against the Detroit Pistons at Madison Square Garden on April... Jalen Brunson #11 and Karl-Anthony Towns #32 of the New York Knicks in action in Game One of the Eastern Conference First Round NBA Playoffs against the Detroit Pistons at Madison Square Garden on April 19, 2025 in New York City. More Photo byThere will be a lot of questions for New York to answer this offseason. Do the Knicks think they can win with the current core in place? Are depth moves needed to further support the star power in the starting lineup? Read more: Pacers' Tyrese Haliburton Sends Clear Message to Knicks With Game 6 Outfit One notable NBA reporter thinks that the first order of business should be moving on from one of their stars. Kevin O'Connor of The Ringer believes that the top priority of the offseason for New York should be trading Towns. "Trading KAT should be priority #1 for the Knicks," O'Connor posted on X. Towns put together a strong initial season with the Knicks. He averaged 24.4 points, 12.8 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and a steal per game in 72 appearances. In the playoffs, he poured in 21.4 points and 11.6 rebounds per game. Moving on from Towns would be an aggressive move. He was the clear second-best player and a great running mate alongside of Brunson. During the series against Indiana, he was also dealing with a knee injury that clearly impacted how he played.

New York could use some work around the edges, but the team is not far off from being a championship caliber squad. Instead of giving up on Towns and getting rid of him, the Knicks could focus on adding more shooting. Bringing in an elite three-point threat would have been a major help against the Pacers. Perhaps moving one of Mikal Bridges or OG Anunboy would be the better big change if they choose to make one. Expect to hear a lot of news surrounding New York this offseason. Towns could be on the market, but that seems a bit hasty to call for at this point. For more New York Knicks and general NBA news, head over to Newsweek Sports.
