It's hard to stand out on celebrity row at a New York Knicks game.

But rapper and pop star Cardi B brought her plus-one known as new New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs to hard launch their relationship after being spotted around the country together, including Miami.

The Grammy Award winner and one-time elite Diggs with the Minnesota Vikings, Buffalo Bills, and Houston Texans, were full of PDA moments all game, holding hands and kissing one another as the Knicks took a commanding 3-1 NBA playoffs Eastern Conference semifinals series lead in a 121-113 win over the Boston Celtics as Jayson Tatum went down with a potentially devastating injury.

While Kylie Jenner and boyfriend Timothée Chalamet tried to steal the spotlight as supposedly die-hard Knicks fans that were also rooting for the Lakers courtside a couple of weeks ago, Cardi B and Diggs won the star-studded night.

It'll be interesting to see how Diggs' much more famous girlfriend fits in with the NFL WAG lifestyle in Foxborough, Massachusetts and the new Mike Vrabel regime. But if Taylor Swift and Hailee Steinfeld can figure it out, so can the outspoken rap hitmaker, with five No. 1 singles.

To top off their very public first outing together, the couple was featured on the Madison Square Garden jumbotron.
