Anne Hathaway calls on-court near miss with Knicks’ OG Anunoby a ‘bucket list moment’

Anne Hathaway was almost hit by New York Knicks player OG Anunoby during Wednesday’s NBA game at Madison Square Garden, but instead of being a near-death experience for the movie star, she called it a “bucket list moment.”

The Oscar-winning actor and her son Jack were attending the New York Knicks vs. Chicago Bulls match when the British player charged towards them while chasing the ball and collided with a courtside barrier right next to the pair.

To Hathaway’s credit, she barely flinched and was even photographed with her hand outstretched, seemingly attempting to catch the ball herself.

The star of “The Devil Wears Prada” and “The Princess Diaries” posted a video message to Instagram on Thursday in which she talked about her and her son’s encounter with the 6-foot-2, 232-pound athlete.

“I almost got hit last night!” she said. “I always wanted this to happen!”

Although some snacks were spilled and her son’s jaw dropped in shock, she ended her video smiling and thanking Anunoby.

He also seemed to have enjoyed the close call, commenting on her post: “You’re welcome.”

The Knick’s lost by one point and the final score was 124-123 for the Bulls.
