Knicks guard Josh Hart denies wedding invitation rumor

New York Knicks guard Josh Hart has publicly dismissed a viral report that he and his fellow starters were invited to the wedding of singer Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce. The denial came after a social media exchange with San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan, who jokingly asked to be Hart's plus-one for the event reportedly scheduled for Friday, July 3, at Madison Square Garden.

Multiple reports had circulated claiming that Knicks players Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby, and Hart were among the more than 1,000 guests expected at the high-profile ceremony. The speculation gained traction given Swift's visible support for the team during their recent NBA championship run. On Thursday, July 2, Sochan quoted one such report on the social media platform X, writing, "What about me? joshhart can I be your plus 1?"

Hart responded directly, writing, "Lol bro this fake news," appearing to refute the existence of any invitation for the Knicks' starting lineup. His comment has cast doubt on the earlier reports, though some observers noted Hart's history of playful social media engagement.
