Monica McNutt, a Knicks radio analyst, faces backlash after comments about singer Taylor Swift’s Knicks fandom during Game 4 of the 2026 NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden. Multiple outlets report that McNutt made remarks while apparently unaware she was still on air, including statements implying Swift was not a Knicks fan and “get out of here” style language directed at her. The controversy follows Swift’s courtside attendance at the game, where the Knicks made a major comeback to beat the San Antonio Spurs. Outlets including Billboard and others note that Swift attended with friends and acquaintances, reinforcing that she was present as a fan. After the remarks circulated, McNutt issues an apology and says she “misspoke,” according to Yahoo Sports and other coverage. Sources agree that Swift is, in fact, a Knicks supporter, and that the apology is linked directly to the hot-mic exchange during the broadcast.
