New York Knicks guard Tyler Kolek said he "misspoke" when describing Taylor Swift as a "performative" fan of the team, adding that he loves her music. The comments came after Swift attended Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden on June 10, 2026, where the Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs.
Kolek's clarification followed his initial remark that had drawn attention on social media. The rookie guard emphasized his appreciation for Swift's music while walking back the characterization of her support for the Knicks.
