Cardi B, another native New Yorker, recorded herself as she watched the match and screamed with excitement when the Knicks won.

The massive win in San Antonio comes after a nail-biter on Wednesday – the Knicks came from behind with a stunning comeback victory to secure a 107-106 win.

Taylor Swift, 36 – who lived in NYC with fiancé Travis Kelce to Game 5 — participated in Game 4 and was seen shouted with friend Mariska Hargitay after the rousing victory, which “Law & Order: SVU” stars later called “the greatest night of (her) life.”

“I love my husband and our wedding night was great and everything, but I think it might have been the best night of my life,” the actress, 62, told The Hollywood Reporter earlier this week.

The longtime Knicks superfan described Game 4’s defining moments in a statement to the outlet, calling it “brutal.”

“The game was so brutal, down 29 at the half, but I’m telling you, to see this team fight and fight back — to see that look in Jalen (Brunson’s) eyes — there’s just endless life lessons in there,” Hargitay wrote.

“And then OG (Anunoby) comes flying in, his orange and blue cape fluttering behind him, and then it’s just pandemonium.”

Hargitay told the outlet that the moment will undoubtedly “be replayed over and over, not just as an epic moment in basketball, but at the pinnacle of the greatest moments in sports.”

Brunson, meanwhile, revealed that he is specifically looking for Hargitay on the sidelines at every game. “Love her to death (and) she knows it,” he said on the “Richard Jefferson Show,” calling her his “No. 1.”

Swift and Hargitay were joined at MSG by A-listers including Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun, Tate McRae, Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor and more.
