Philadelphia, PA – Hip Hop culture and the sport of basketball have long gone hand-in-hand. Rappers love sitting courtside and catching some NBA action, but there’s times when they also join in on the fun.
On Wednesday (March 2), Meek Mill was sitting courtside at the Philadelphia 76ers game where his hometown team took on the New York Knicks. During one of the timeouts, Meek got a hold of a ball and decided to show his Steph Curry range by shooting a long-range jumper from well beyond the three-point line.
Sixers owner Michael Rubin captured the footage on his Instagram Story, showing his 327,000 followers how impressive Meek’s form was. The Philly rapper looked impressed himself, giving high fives to people sitting next to him courtside.
“Not bad!!,” Rubin captioned the clip.
