A Prank for the Ages
During the trophy presentation following the Knicks’ commanding 124-113 win over the San Antonio Spurs at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Hart seized the moment to showcase his playful chemistry with Brunson.

In a bold move, he jabbed his thumb right into Brunson’s backside while the guard held the coveted championship trophy.

He took to social media platform X to share the moment, posting, “Damn in 4k…..😂😂😂😂.” This lighthearted approach not only showcased the camaraderie between the two players but also highlighted the fun and unpredictable side of sports celebrations.
As fans and teammates alike reveled in the moment, Hart’s prank became emblematic of the Knicks’ joyful spirit following their championship victory. The incident serves as a reminder that amidst the intense competition and pressure of the NBA, there’s always room for laughter and friendship.
