In a delightful turn of events, the dynamic Knicks duo brought their playful banter to the stage of NBC’s ‘Late Night’ with Seth Meyers. The comedic chemistry between Brunson and Hart was on full display for the live audience and viewers at home to witness.
During the show, Meyers probed Hart about his favorite ways to poke fun at his All-NBA teammate, and Hart wasted no time in delivering a hilarious response. “The size of his head,” Hart quipped, with a mischievous glint in his eye. The banter continued as Hart playfully referred to Meyers’ son having a Jalen Brunson bobblehead, dubbing him ‘Bobblehead Brunson’ with a chuckle.
Meyers, ever the gracious host, added some context to the ongoing joke. “I explained that I had brought my son to the game and it was Brunson bobblehead day,” Meyers shared. “And then every time you scored he yelled, ‘Bobblehead Brunson!’ And I apologize for telling Josh that,” Meyers joked, acknowledging the good-natured ribbing.
Hart, quick-witted as ever, couldn’t resist adding his own humorous spin to the conversation. “You know it’s crazy. Normally you see bobbleheads and they have the heads a little bit bigger but this is the first time they made it actually the size of the head,” Hart teased, eliciting laughter from the audience and Brunson himself.
The camaraderie between Brunson and Hart, both on and off the court, has endeared them to fans in New York City. Their lighthearted antics and genuine friendship have made them the talk of the town, with their popularity soaring to new heights. As they set their sights on a championship this season, there’s no doubt that the Knicks duo will continue to bring their winning charm and infectious humor to the forefront.
