On the latest episode of the New Heights podcast, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce said he was eager to watch the NBA’s Eastern Conference Finals.

Kelce is a big Cleveland Cavaliers fan, and he wanted to see them play the Knicks in New York.

“I’ll probably watch the games that are at Madison Square Garden because it’s the Garden. It’s absolutely epic,” Kelce said. “And I can’t wait to see all the social clips of the Knicks fans, because it’s every single year, hilarious. I’m just talking about not even in the stadium, just like people on the streets, dude. It’s hilarious, man, when the Knicks are firing like they are right now.

“Man, I gotta get to a game of the Garden.”

But after the Knicks won the first two games of the series at Madison Square Garden, Kelce went back to his hometown of Cleveland on Saturday night to watch the Cavs at Rocket Arena.

And Kelce brought his fiancée, superstar singer Taylor Swift. When attention wasn’t on the game, which the Knicks won 121-108, then all eyes were on the country’s most famous celebrity couple.

Here are nine photos of Kelce and Swift from Getty Image’s ​Gregory Shamus and Jason Miller.
