Kai Cenat, the famous Twitch streamer, shared an unbelievable story about how he got lifetime tickets to New York Knicks games! It all started with a surprise elevator meeting with Knicks owner James L. Dolan. Neither knew the other at first. But Dolan noticed the simple "Plain Jane" watch Kai was wearing and was impressed.

"For the craziest connection I ever got, I was going on this elevator, bro. I had a Plain Jane on, a comedy star with this guy in the elevator. He said, you don't like to watch…" Kai said on his live stream.

He added, "I don't know what you're doing here. I didn't know I got his number. And bro, he fuing put his phone number in my phone… And when he handed my phone back, he said he was the owner of the fuing Knicks. He didn't even know who I was…"

This surprise moment turned into a once-in-a-lifetime chance for Kai! The billionaire Dolan gifted him lifetime tickets to Knicks games. But this wasn’t Kai’s only celebrity NBA moment. He also joined the league’s promotion for the 2024-25 season opener and was picked by the Knicks as the first overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft during a fun ceremony.

Kai has rubbed shoulders with many NBA stars. In his recent Twitch stream, he welcomed Chet Holmgren and even hosted the 2025 Little Basketball Association (LBA) tournament, where Holmgren showed support and gifted him a pair of special SHAI 001 shoes. Later, they talked with NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander over FaceTime. Shai even sent Kai a pair of the cool “Masi Blue” Converse SHAI 001 sneakers for the LBA title game, where Kai took home the MVP trophy himself!

Kai’s NBA journey got even more exciting when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander signed his jersey courtside wearing a quirky green fuzzy hat and casual clothes. Kai praised the Oklahoma City Thunder’s thrilling comeback win, showing true fan spirit.

From meeting a billionaire in an elevator to forming close bonds with NBA stars, Kai Cenat’s story is a colorful mix of luck, talent, and star power! Who knew a simple watch could open so many doors?
