NBA Finals: Why Donte DiVincenzo could attend Game 3 in New York
June 8, 2026, 6:21 p.m. ET
It could be a Villanova reunion at Madison Square Garden on Monday night.
The New York Knicks already have a trio of former Wildcat teammates on their roster in Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart and Mikal Bridges, and a fourth former Villanova star could also be in the building for Game 3 of the NBA Finals against the San Antonio Spurs.
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo was spotted outside of the Spurs’ team hotel in New York, prompting speculation that he could be set to watch his former team and teammates as they look to take a commanding 3-0 series lead.
DiVincenzo was using crutches as he recovers from a torn Achilles, which ended his season in Game 4 of the first round of the playoffs.
Brunson, Bridges and DiVincenzo won two national titles while at Villanova in 2016 and 2018. Hart was also a member of the 2016 title-winning team.
Brunson, Hart and DiVincenzo briefly reunited in 2023-24 as teammates with the Knicks, while Bridges joined the following season to preserve a Villanova trinity. Now, DiVincenzo will likely be on hand as his former college teammates look to put themselves in a commanding position to win another championship.
