One-time besties Kylie Jenner and Jordyn Woods reunited to celebrate the New York Knicks win against the Celtics.
ESPN shared footage of Jenner and Woods, both 27, jumping for joy courtside after the Knicks defeated the Celtics 121-113 in Game 4 on Monday, May 12. Jenner was at the game with her boyfriend, Knicks superfan Timothée Chalamet, while Woods was cheering for her ' boyfriend, Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns.
The sweet moment between Jenner and Woods comes after they were previously inseparable. Things took a turn in 2019 when Woods and Khloé Kardashian's then-boyfriend, Tristan Thompson, kissed.
Kardashian, 40, who shares True, 7, and Tatum, 2, with Thompson, 34, called it quits in the wake of the scandal, reconnecting before ending things for good in 2021.

Woods later reflected on how the drama impacted her friendship with Jenner.
"It's easy to beat yourself up over things you could've done differently, but you can't hold on to what you could've or should've done. You just have to accept what actually happened and then you can let it go," she said during a September 2020 interview on the Now With Natalie YouTube series. "I think that letting go of shame is learning how to accept what's happened."
Meanwhile, Kardashian addressed her decision to forgive everyone involved in the situation.
'I personally don't talk to her, but I think she's doing really well in her personal life,' she said during the Keeping Up With the Kardashians reunion in June 2021. 'I think that's a huge misconception [that I only forgave Tristan]. That's also the thing where some narratives aren't as fun to pass around and spread like wildfire. I've actually tweeted, I've actually done Insta Stories. I don't have any grudge against Jordyn. I think people make mistakes, people live, and they learn and I forgive both parties. How could I forgive Tristan and not Jordyn? That sounds asinine in my opinion.'
Before Jenner and Woods rekindled their friendship, Thompson sat down with Jenner to discuss how the scandal affected her.
"It really bothers me because we had such a dope relationship. But everyone got affected differently. You were affected the most by the situation," he told Jenner in a November 2023 episode of The Kardashians. "You lost Jordyn who was a big part of your life. I know how much she meant to your life and your connection. You were two peas in a pod so the fact that I put myself into the situation wasn't right and wasn't smart."
He continued: 'I want to say I am sorry. I feel bad about it. ... The fact that I came with my poor decisions and being a f***ing idiot who was young and stupid, I wanted to say I am sorry again for that."

Jenner accepted the apology while acknowledging how the situation changed her for the better.
"I think I was so codependent with Jordyn that I could never imagine my life without her. We would have probably still been living together. She needed to grow without me and I needed to grow without her," she added. "Jordyn and I are cool. We still talk and catch up. We are good."
Elsewhere in the episode, Thompson addressed the significant age difference between him and Woods at the time of their encounter. (He was 28 while the model was 21.)
"If someone told me, do you think Kylie misses Jordyn? I'd probably say yes. And I feel bad about that. Especially me being the older one. I should have handled it differently. I should have handled it more as the older person. As the wiser [person]," he added. "Sometimes for men they don't realize until they are 40 or 50 when the train is already gone. Hopefully, my train hasn't left."
