“Damn my bad yall, I was talking about love island,” the two-time All-Star wrote in a follow-up post.

Brunson, widely known for his Mariska Hargitay and “Law & Order” fandom, was referencing the global phenomenon and reality TV dating franchise “Love Island.”

The seventh season of the U.S. installment premiered on Peacock earlier this month and is hosted by “Vanderpump Rules” alum Ariana Madix.

Brunson’s tweets follow what’s been a wild start to the offseason for the Knicks, who were defeated by the Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals in six.

Days later, the Knicks fired head coach Tom Thibodeau after five seasons.

The team, stonewalled by other organizations to speak with their head coaches — including the Mavericks’ Jason Kidd— are slated to meet with Taylor Jenkins and Mike Brown about the coaching vacancy this week.

Though unclear whether the candidates’ TV preferences will be addressed in the interview process, Brunson isn’t the only New York sports star captivated by “Love Island.”

When speaking to the media Wednesday, Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito quipped that he and rookie teammate Jaxson Dart “might go on ‘Love Island,’” The Post’s Paul Schwartz reported.

“We’ve talked about it,” the New Jersey native added.

Surely there’s room for more at Casa Amor.
