Timothée Chalamet's reaction to the New York Knicks' win over the Boston Celtics on Monday has gone viral online.
Newsweek reached out to Chalamet's representative via email for comment.
The Context
Chalamet, 29, his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner, 27, and her sister, Kendall Jenner, 29, attended Game 4 of the NBA East Semifinals at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Knicks beat the Celtics 121-113.
Earlier this month, the A Complete Unknown star and Kylie Cosmetics founder made their red carpet debut at the 70th David Di Donatello Awards in Rome. While Jenner previously accompanied Chalamet to the Golden Globe Awards in January and the Oscars in March, they did not walk the red carpet together.
The couple was first linked in 2023. During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen in June of that year, Chalamet's Don't Look Up costar Jennifer Lawrence spoke out about his relationship with Jenner.
"I don't like that he didn't get my permission, but I support it," she teased at the time.
Jenner also got the stamp of approval from Chalamet's mother, Nicole Flender. In an interview with New York Magazine's Curbed, she said of the reality TV star: "I have to say she's lovely. She's very nice to me."

"I know Dennis will not throw a punch. No way" - Phil Jackson was confident Dennis Rodman will never start a fight
"I know Dennis will not throw a punch. No way" - Phil Jackson was confident Dennis Rodman will never start a fight originally appeared on Basketball Network. As a true master in coaching, former Chicago Bulls head coach Phil Jackson took it upon himself to assess what was waiting for his team, especially in the playoffs when the stakes were high. In the 1998 postseason, "The Zen Master" reviewed the performances of the Bulls' next possible opponents and noted the ugly brawl involving the New York Knicks and the Miami Heat. Advertisement In his mind, Phil already anticipated an intense and extremely physical series against either the Knicks or the Heat. Though the Bulls had a bad boy in Dennis Rodman, Jackson was confident that there wouldn't be a fight once the series started. "The Zen Master" knew well that Rodman was a much better player than everybody gave him credit for. With that in mind, Phil was certain "The Worm" would never start a fight. "I'm sitting in my office outside the United Center floor," the legendary coach recalled via ESPN. "It's quiet, and I'm thinking about what lies ahead. We saw how the Sonics and the Jazz came back from big deficits to advance, and we saw the energy the Knicks had when they beat the Heat." "And we know about the fight, but I did not talk about it with the team," Jackson continued. "I want our team to play with full effort, but not thoughtlessly. Dennis Rodman got tangled up with Vlade Divac, but I know Dennis will not throw a punch. No way. He knows what is at stake." Phil could see through Rodman For the better part of his Hall of Fame career, the two-time DPOY unapologetically embraced a rebellious and eccentric persona both on and off the court. Other coaches would surely be bothered and stressed by Dennis' wild antics, but not Coach Jackson. Advertisement For "The Zen Master," he recognized early on that Rodman was just living up to a specific character that greatly enjoyed the spotlight. Despite that, Jackson had always been confident that "The Worm" understood his role in the team, and he never let his teammates down. "It was stepping into character, a personality," Jackson said of Rodman in 2011 via "Finding his character was an influence of Madonna's." "He was a product of their system," the legendary coach added of Rodman. "In Detroit, the mantra was not to back down. He threw Scottie into the seats in '91. He was not a menacing guy, but he needed to be part of something."

His unpredictable antics have left a lasting impression on fans and teammates alike. Still, his undeniable talent and work ethic truly made "Dennis the Menace" unique. Advertisement Rodman consistently played intensely and at such a high level, particularly in rebounding and playing defense. Moreover, he also had the ability to stay productive in high-pressure and tense situations. Rodman's dedication to his craft showcased his talent and his passion for the game. Apart from Coach Jackson, many fans believe that "The Worm" has truly earned his rightful place in the pantheon of the all-time greats.

Surprising NHL Team Expected to Be 'Major' Players in Free Agency
Surprising NHL Team Expected to Be 'Major' Players in Free Agency originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The NHL offseason is almost upon us, with the 2025 Stanley Cup Final getting set to start on Wednesday. This summer is expected to be very active for a lot of teams, with multiple sides looking to get close to winning a title. Advertisement But one team in particular could be a major player in free agency, and that is the Carolina Hurricanes. After losing in the Eastern Conference Final again, Carolina is gearing up for a massive offseason. Hurricanes general manager Eric Tulsky spoke about the upcoming summer, hinting at the plans of the team. 'If there's any chance to get better, we're going to take it,' Tulsky said during a postseason meeting with the media. 'We have the full buy-in to spend to the cap if there are ways to do it to get better. "We have so much space and such a strong team. There's no guarantee we can find ways to spend all that money, but we're going to spend all summer trying.' Carolina Hurricanes center Sebastian Aho (20) and Anaheim Ducks defenseman Olen Zellweger (51) watch the puck during the third period at Lenovo Center. James Guillory-Imagn Images It remains unknown which players would be of interest to Carolina, but they will have room to make a big splash. The expected salary cap for next season is coming in at $92.4 million. Advertisement 'Our goal is to win a Cup, and our goal is to win more Cups after that and keep going,' Tulsky said. 'We're trying to build a team that can compete year after year. But competing isn't enough. We want to win. So you've got to find a way to do that.' If the Hurricanes can add some more talent, they may finally be able to get over the hump to reach the Stanley Cup Final. Carolina has a solid core in place, and it seems that they are just a piece or two away from truly contending.
