Ahead of Game 3 of the NBA Finals, New York Knicks' Tyler Kolek got asked some hard-hitting questions, like if he's ever seen the NSFW scene in Timothée Chalamet's critically acclaimed film.
Guillermo Rodriguez, who is known for his role on Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Show, spoke to the Knicks point guard ahead of Game 3, facing the San Antonio Spurs on Monday, June 8.
“You know Timothée Chalamet? He's a big fan of you guys,” Rodriguez asked.
Kolek nods and responds, “That's out guy.”
“Have you seen the movie that he has a peach and he makes love to the peach?” Rodriguez asks.
“What movie is that?” Kolek answers.
Rodriguez shares the title of the film, Call Me by Your Name, which was released in 2017 and earned Chalamet his first Oscar nomination.
“But you look a little bit like Chalamet,” Rodriguez continues, “Do you like peaches?”
Kolek laughs, “Not like that.”
“Asking tyler if he’s ever f–ked a PEACH is crazy,” a fan reacted to the video.

Fans have compared Chalamet and Kolek for their similar appearances ever since the Oscar-nominated actor went viral at a Knicks game. During the fourth quarter of Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Knicks and the Cleveland Cavaliers, Chalamet yelled,”WHITE BOYSSSS!” when Kolek clutched a three-pointer.
