Jack's jaw dropped at the sudden commotion, but no injuries seemed to have taken place.
"Anunoby's scaring those along the sidelines," one of the game's announcers playfully said while laughing.
His co-host added, "The lil kid was mesmerized. He couldn't move."
As the announcers talked, a video of a smiling Hathaway played across the screen, as she rubbed her boy's arm to let him know everything was okay.
"He's not happy about the popcorn being spilled, that's for sure," the commentator said of Jack, adding, "There's always more popcorn, young man."
The Princess Diaries actress and her husband Adam Shulman are parents to two young boys — Jonathan, who was born in 2016, before Jack joined the family three years later in 2019.
Appearing on the cover of NET-A-PORTER's digital title PORTER in November 2023, Hathaway opened up on why she chooses to keep her two kids out of the spotlight.
"It's something I feel is not just essential for my health — I'm on a team, it's my family, and it's not just about me," she told the outlet at the time.
"My family has needs, and one of the needs of children is that they need to be able to define their own lives," the Devil Wears Prada star continued. "It doesn't even occur to me to link the two up, except through gratitude that they serve each other so beautifully. But they serve each other through me, and not through a space that's outside of myself."
The actress, who has previously said she would consider another child, has also talked openly about her fertility journey.
"For everyone going through infertility and conception hell, please know it was not a straight line to either of my pregnancies," she captioned an Instagram selfie announcing her second pregnancy in 2019. "Sending you extra love."

In March of this year, Hathaway explained in an interview with Vanity Fairwhy she chose to be so candid in her pregnancy reveal, while also sharing that she experienced a miscarriage in 2015.
"Given the pain I felt while trying to get pregnant, it would've felt disingenuous to post something all the way happy when I know the story is much more nuanced than that for everyone," she said.
