The old-school powerhouse matchup brought out plenty of stars, including a significant portion of the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots.
Fresh off their impressive performance against the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII, several members of the Patriots decided to take in some basketball.
Among the players are tonight’s game was rookie running back Sony Michel, Shaq Mason, Jason and Devin McCourty and Kyle Van Noy.
However the biggest celebrity of the night was head coach Bill Belichick who walked in with girlfriend Linda Holliday.
Here’s their entrance to the game.
"That's the 🐐 right there."

Belichick was greeted with a hug from running back Rex Burkhead who exploded in the playoffs with three touchdowns en route to the sixth Super Bowl win for the Patriots.
The New England head coach outclassed Rams head coach Sean McVay on the field Sunday night and appears to be enjoying the offseason with a sixth ring.
The victory tour will continue throughout the summer for the Patriots, though Belichick most likely won’t take much time off before he prepares for the NFL draft.
He’ll have his hands full gearing up for the NFL combine later this month as well.
