@nypost: Not all of the stars on “Celebrity Row” receive the same reception from a certain Knicks playmaker. That’s according to Knicks superfan Ben Stiller, who said Monday on Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart’s “Roommates Show” podcast that longtime “Law & Order: SVU” star Mariska Hargitay “is the envy of every other Knicks fan” because of her game-day interactions with the team captain. “The love that Mariska Hargitay gets from you postgame is the envy of every other Knicks fan, Knicks celebrity fan. She gets a hug after a loss,” Stiller said. Brunson, 28, then detailed how he grew up watching “Law & Order: SVU” and its beloved star, whom he embraced courtside at Madison Square Garden on April 11. “I remember my dad always watching the show and it was like, you just hear the iconic [theme song] ‘don-don’ all the time in the house,” Brunson said, “… And so, always found myself watching the show and the older I got, the more I watched, the more I see now I’m like, ‘I’ve seen that episode,’ I’ve seen so many different episodes.” “I’ve always loved the show, and I’ve never been like super, super starstruck. I saw her and I was like, ‘Oh, s–t,’ and then, the first time we met, it was awesome, we talked and everything,” he said. Brunson cited his quality time with Hargitay, 61, over the actress’s rare Garden appearances compared to Stiller’s. “I expect to see him there all the time, but this is her first or second game this year, so I’m not going to see her for a long time, so I’m just going to say hi and go,” Brunson said. 📸: Roommates Show; Instagram / Mariska Hargitay; Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post
