As the kids say, the stars were in the building for Game 1 of the WNBA Finals.

Barclays is no stranger to the rich and famous, and its ce-liberty (get it?) row is usually packed with A-listers. That didn’t change for the WNBA Finals. When the New York Liberty hosted the Minnesota Lynx Thursday, a gaggle of people were on the sidelines to watch all the action.

That also includes Liberty super fan and women’s basketball enthusiast Jason Sudeikis, who has been attending games for months. Sudeikis was there for numerous WNBA matchups this season, including the WNBA All-Star game, and wasn’t about to miss New York in the Finals.
