The Spurs vs. Knicks NBA Finals matchup is easily one of the most hyped series we’ve seen in years. You have the unstoppable alien, Victor Wembanyama, going head-to-head with the undisputed king of New York, Jalen Brunson.
Because of this historic clash, NBA Finals courtside tickets are currently selling for the price of a luxury car. So, you can imagine my confusion when I opened up Instagram this morning and saw many people posting selfies from the courtside seats, casually standing next to Wemby and Brunson. I know for a fact my buddy Dave didn’t drop $20,000 on a basketball game. So I texted him to ask how he faked it.
"Bro, AI did all that."

Welcome to the newest social media cheat code. It turns out, nobody is actually sneaking onto the court. Instead, everyone is using an incredibly realistic AI tool called PicMa to generate these viral photos in one click. I decided to test it out myself, and honestly, the results are so good it’s a little scary. Here is how you can get your own courtside picture without leaving your couch.
