Oscar-Winning Knicks Superfan Taunts Trump With Jersey
Lee was spotted courtside Monday night in the #14 jersey that he had signed by the first American pope, who has repeatedly butted heads with the president over his immigration policies. Vice President JD Vance, an adult Catholic convert, also felt the need to try to explain theology to the pope earlier this year.
Lee told CNN about the jersey earlier in the day on Monday, explaining: I gave him one signed by me and I gave him another for him to sign. It came back two months laterbut it was signed!

I cant speak for all disciples. But, I just find it strange that this had to happen now, he said. Youve got to get there two hours early. I mean... its taking the focus off. We havent won [a championship] since 1973! It should be about the game tonight.
