Share Post

Sarah Jessica Parker is in on the New York Knicks mania.

The actress, her husband Matthew Broderick and their children celebrated the Knicks beating the San Antonio Spurs in the first game of the 2026 NBA Finals at the Crompton Ale House in Chelsea on Wednesday night.

An eyewitness exclusively told Page Six the couple and their kids — son James 23, and twin daughters Tabitha and Marion, 16 — had a “really good time.”

“It was nothing crazy, they were really great,” the source said.

Broderick (seen above in Parker’s video) whipped his phone out to record the wild moment himself.

The “Sex and the City” actress, 61, shared an Instagram video of everyone in the bar — including Broderick, 64 — screaming and hugging each other when the Knicks won.

Broderick, who was wearing a gray sweater and glasses, also whipped his phone out to record the rapturous moment.

Parker captioned her post, “@cromptonalehouse and just SOME of the happiest New Yorkers. @nyknicks you brought some elevated heartbeats and a lot of tears.”

She continued, “Thank you JW for making sure we were all there and thank you @cromptonalehouse for the hospitality and the best servers with the steadiest hands in Manhattan!!! Rest up fellas!!!!”

James also posted footage from the bar on his Instagram Stories. One of the photos showed two girls decked out in Knicks gear at a table with Coors Light beers and food.

Broderick and James went to a Knicks game together at Madison Square Garden in February 2019. They sat court-side next to Trevor Noah and his “Daily Show” correspondent Ronny Chieng.

Parker and Broderick, who have been married since 1997, are both NYC staples.

She moved there from Ohio at age 11 and became synonymous with the Big Apple for playing Carrie Bradshaw in “Sex and the City” and “And Just Like That,” while her husband was born and raised in the city.

The couple met through Parker’s older brothers, Pippin and Toby Parker, who founded the Naked Angels Theater Company in NYC, where Broderick had recently directed a play.

They starred in their first Broadway show together, “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” one year before their wedding

In 2020, Parker told Town & Country: “In my estimation, there is no greater city than New York City.” 

The “Hocus Pocus” star said she’s always been drawn to the Big Apple for its “cultural promise and complexity,” as well as “the challenges and the opportunities.”

“I love the yellow taxis, I love the architecture… It’s a place that, even today, when I walk out the door, I don’t know what will happen,” she shared.

“I’m not in a car; I’m not behind a gate. I’m forced to be on the streets and bump into people and connect with humanity,” Parker continued.

She also gushed that her kids “are enormously lucky” to be growing up in NYC.
