Knicks celebs game 2

Luckily for Ben Stiller, the Met Gala is only one night.

The actor and director was back at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night for the Knicks’ 108-102 Game 2 win over the 76ers after missing the second-round series opener on Monday night due to his prior commitment at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

At the gala, Stiller supported his Knicks when he wore an orange tie, while his wife, actress Christine Taylor, donned a royal blue gown designed by Bibhu Mohapatra. Stiller put up six fingers while he entered the gala, signifying he believed New York would beat Philly in six games in the series. New York did its part with a Game 1 rout of the 76ers.

He had a much more toned-down look at the Garden with a black Knicks hoodie. Sitting not too far from him along the first row was actor Timothée Chalamet — who did skip the Met Gala to attend Game 1 — and his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner.

Jenner attended the gala without her beau. On Tuesday, Chalamet posted a video of him draining a 3-pointer at MSG, prompting the Knicks to reply in the comments: “check your dms we just sent you a 10-day,”  jokingly offering him a contract.

Actors Jason Bateman and Sam Rockwell were seated near the couple and were spotted chatting during the first quarter of the action.

The actors were only part of the equation for the Game 2 celebrity scene, as rapper and mogul Jay-Z — the former Nets part-owner — posed for some pictures with Knicks legend and MSG Network analyst Walt “Clyde” Frazier.

Patrick Ewing, John Starks, Larry Johnson, Latrell Sprewell, Spencer Haywood, Chris Childs and Kurt Thomas rounded out the Knicks alumni contingent for the evening.
