Prince Harry Begs Knicks Star Jalen Brunson for Help Escaping The Monarchy

The Duke of Sussex was spotted attempting to trade his royal title for a pair of height-increasing basketball sneakers and a jersey.

Spotted! Our favorite exiled Prince, Harry, was seen rubbing elbows with New York Knicks royalty Jalen Brunson this week, and let’s just say someone is clearly suffering from career envy. Harry looked less like a Duke and more like a guy hoping to get drafted as a bench-warmer just to avoid another charity gala. He was seen leaning in close to Brunson, presumably asking if 'The Process' involves learning how to curtsy without pulling a hamstring. Not to be outdone by the tall ballers, LeBron James was also lurking in the vicinity, probably making sure Harry didn't try to claim the crown of 'King' for himself. The vibe was very 'I have a spare palace if you have a spare three-pointer.' Sources tell us Harry spent most of the night trying to explain the rules of polo to the NBA stars, who looked about as interested as we are in a three-hour documentary about royal beige wallpaper. Between the hoops stars and pop princess Gracie Abrams, Harry is officially auditioning for a new squad. He’s clearly over the tea and crumpets circuit and ready for that Gatorade sponsorship. Honestly, with those ginger locks and his history of dodging paparazzi, he’d actually make a pretty decent point guard for the Knicks. At least their fans are already used to high-stakes drama and public disappointment!
