New York is pretty wild these days, with people showering positivity throughout the city. When a sports team performs well and gets fans on its back, it becomes a vibrant place, and Anne Hathaway put that context into reality with her support for the New York Knicks.
The Big Apple awaits the Indiana Pacers for Game 1, and the Knicks fanatics will give them a rousing reception at Madison Square Garden. They are relishing their time right now after reaching the Conference Finals after 25 years.
It’s a rematch of the 2000 Eastern Conference Finals, in which the Pacers won 4-2. But now, Hathaway and the Knicks are ready to welcome the Pacers to New York.

She even had an on-court interaction with Anunoby during the regular season. Anunoby chased the ball from going out of bounds and crashed into the billboards with Hathaway and her son, Jack, sitting courtside. He prevented himself from crashing into the actress, but spilled Jack’s food in the process.
Hathaway saw the fun side of the situation and posted a video of Anunoby-Hathaway’s near-crash moment. She posted the video on her Instagram handle and captioned it, “🏀🧡 Bucket-list moment 💙🗽,” to which Anunoby replied, “You’re welcome.”
