TORONTO — It was a winning night for the Miami Heat — but not so much for Canadian rapper Drake.
The Toronto-born star, who sat court-side at Game 7 of the NBA Finals at Miami’s American Airlines Arena on Thursday, turned around several times to shout at another fan.
Witnesses said Drake cursed at the man, believed to be in his 60s. It is not known what sparked the exchange.
Eventually, a police officer and arena employee went over to Drake to defuse the situation.
Things didn’t get better for the “Take Care” rapper after the Heat victory.
Drake and his entourage were denied entry to the Heat locker room. In an ESPN Radio video posted online, Drake is heard asking a security guard: “No access for everybody but us?”
When a security guard explains entry is for media only, Drake replies: “I am media.”
Drake later partied into the wee hours at Story nightclub in Miami Beach with Heat stars like LeBron James and Dwyane Wade.
