Mariska Hargitay and Kelli Giddish recently attended Knicks games, with the announcement that Giddish’s character, Amanda Rollins, will rejoin Law & Order: SVU in its upcoming season 27. Last month, NBC confirmed Rollins’ return as a regular cast member, much to the delight of fans who were saddened by her departure from the series in 2022. Hargitay is among those eagerly anticipating Giddish’s comeback.

On the 30th of May, NBC’s Law & Order Instagram account posted a video featuring images of Giddish and Hargitay enjoying a Knicks basketball match at Madison Square Garden on the 29th. The caption read, “We trust in Benson and Brunson.” In the clip, it’s evident that the actresses are having a great time together, even posing with a bedazzled basketball that bears the phrase “New York Forever”. Giddish also posted some photos from the game, including one with her husband, Beau Richards.
