What was said
"I've been Photoshopping fake TMZ articles like Brunson tore his ACL. This morning with today's date and texting them to my friends who are diehard Knicks fans. And they're like, I swear to God, Eric, like, your voodoo, whatever you think is funny right now, it is not funny. The more angry they get, the more I'm cranking out these fake Photoshopped articles of injured Knicks players right now. And I'm losing friends."
During the 2025 NBA Finals with the Knicks competing, Andre admitted to creating fake TMZ articles announcing injuries to key Knicks players and sending them to his Knicks-fan friends early in the morning. He described escalating the prank as his friends grew more upset, acknowledging he was actively damaging friendships for his own amusement during a high-stakes playoff run.
