What Would JFK Jr. Say About the Knicks’ NBA Finals Run? A Close Friend Reveals All.

He’s one heavenly VIP.

Late Knicks superfan and Celebrity Row mainstay John F. Kennedy Jr. is cheering on his beloved Knicks from a courtside seat in the sky, a pal told The Post.

“I bet he’s cheering from somewhere,” said his close friend and chief of staff, RoseMarie Terenzio.

If John John was still alive today, he’d not only be at Madison Square Garden for the NBA finals — he’d be the most popular and best dressed person there, she added.

“John was the one New Yorker cool enough to make MSG even cooler — and he’d still be the most famous person in the building,” she said.

Kennedy, who lived in Tribeca, was known to sport a tie and button-down shirt for games at the World’s Most Famous Arena when he was going there straight from his Midtown office.

“Whether he was at a sporting event or riding his bike around the city, he always looked sharp, but he never looked like he was trying,” she added.

Kennedy, who owned two pairs of Knicks tickets, one on Celebrity Row and one behind the basket, was at MSG for the 1999 NBA Finals, the last time the Knicks made the championship.
