The New York Knicks won their first NBA Championship in 53 years at last night’s NBA Finals Game 5, beating the San Antonio Spurs. Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet got to celebrate the victory in the Knicks’ locker room, and he even got to hold onto a WWE Title belt during the victory celebration.
The official NBA X account even released a clip of Chalamet celebrating the moment and holding the WWE Title belt. As previously reported, Chalamet is a big wrestling fan, and the actor has spoken in the past about wrestling being a major inspiration for him.
WWE Superstar Danhausen previously claimed that he wanted some Knicks court-side seats between Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner for his “uncursing” of the Knicks to continue. There’s no word yet if he was granted those court-side seat privileges.
