The reason Ben Stiiller’s been filming Knicks’ NBA Finals games on phone finally revealed

If you’ve watched any of the New York Knicks’ NBA Finals games, you’ll notice superfan Ben Stiller recording on his iPhone. While it may seem strange, the reason for this has been revealed.

According to Page Six, Stiller has been filming footage for an upcoming HBO documentary about the Knicks. That explains why he’s been filming from his celebrity row seat and behind the scenes.

Not much else is known about the project. However, HBO is entrusting a tried and true Knicks fan for the upcoming documentary.

Ben Stiller has been to all of the Knicks’ NBA Finals games

Through three games, Stiller has had perfect attendance at the Knicks’ NBA Finals contests. Presumably, he will be at Game 4, capturing more footage in front of a raucous New York crowd.

It shouldn’t be surprising, given how much of a diehard fan he is. Stiller regularly live-posts and attends games, especially during playoff runs.

He has been traveling to the team’s away games during the postseason as well. Stiller, Spike Lee, Timothée Chalamet, and Fat Joe have all been seen on the road.

Game 4 of the NBA Finals will be played on Wednesday, June 10. If the Knicks win, they will have a chance to close out the series in Game 5, which will be played in San Antonio. If a sixth game is necessary, the NBA Finals will return to the Garden one last time. Game 7 would be played in San Antonio, since the Spurs had a better regular season record.

The Knicks lost Game 3 in heartbreaking fashion, blowing a halftime lead. Victor Wembanyama and Jalen Brunson both scored 32 points in the game. However, Wemby was a lot more efficient throughout, making 11 of his 18 shots. Brunson, meanwhile, only made 11 of his 25 shots, which was still the best field goal percentage he had so far in the series.
