Watch: Tom Brady & Lil Wayne link up with Knicks' Jalen Brunson & Josh Hart for live fan fest
New York Knicks stars Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart linked up with two legendary celebrities at the Fanatics Fest Roommates Show. The two veterans shared the stage with seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady and rapper Lil Wayne.
Fans were ecstatic to see the Knicks stars join forces with Brady and Wayne for a special show. They were hyped up by Michael Rubin before getting on stage to start the show. Brady and Wayne sat together while the duo sat with Matt Hillman.
While on stage, they were later joined by streamer IShowSpeed, who proceeded to do a backflip trick in front of Hart and Brunson.
Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart are coming off a strong season with the Knicks, where they clinched the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference and reached the conference semifinals.
Brunson signed a four-year, $156.5 million extension this offseason, which is significantly less than what he could've gotten had he signed an extension next year.
Knicks superfan Spike Lee hypes up Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart to win another NBA championship
Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart were around some famous people at the Fanatics event. Besides Tom Brady and Lil Wayne, they also met Spike Lee, a renowned movie director and Knicks superfan.
Lee presented the duo with a special piece of memorabilia to motivate them to win another championship. Accompanied by Knicks legend Walt Frazier, Lee showed the players the Madison Square Garden net from the Knicks' first championship, letting them know that they needed new silverware.
"We need to get a motherf***ing--Excuse my language, especially the young people. I'm sorry. But, 1972-73, come on, now. Let's go. Let's get another ring! Up to the sky, let's go!" Lee told Brunson and Hart.
After Walt Frazier recalled that he did a little bit of everything to beat the Jerry West-led LA Lakers to win the first championship in franchise history, Lee sent a strong message to Brunson and Hart as they get ready for a challenging season.
Following a disappointing exit against the Indiana Pacers in the second round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs, the Knickerbockers are keen to bounce back and dethrone the Boston Celtics as the East champions.
