Forget the sky. For star-gazers, the focus is on Madison Square Garden.

Plenty of bold-faced names took their places Monday night on celebrity row and throughout the crowd at Game 3 of the NBA Finals.

The New York Knicks are looking to grab a 3-0 lead over the San Antonio Spurs as the series comes to Manhattan. It’s the first time since 1999 that the Knicks have hosted a Finals game, and the crowd is expected to be star-studded.

It was no surprise to see Timothée Chalamet, Spike Lee, Tracy Morgan, Ben Stiller and Fat Joe. They’re all courtside mainstays.

Like Morgan and Lee, Tina Fey was dressed the part of a super fan, wearing a Knicks jersey.

DJ Khaled was also at MSG to take in the action, as were Derek Jeter, Larry David and Jay-Z.

President Donald Trump made it to Monday night’s game, and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is expected to as well.
