The Clippers and the Lakers had an intense face-off recently. While the Clippers looked to stay on the playoff track, their dreams were dashed via a resilient Lakers. Dominating the game throughout, the Lakers secured a 122-97 victory to further advance in the league. However, while the match itself did not have any such notable controversies, the NBA realm was riled up for a whole different reason.
During a point in the game, an arena staff member could be seen yanking at a person walking on the court. Immediately, the person looked visibly upset as he fumed and left the arena. Well, as a matter of fact, the person involved was none other than popular rapper Travis Scott!
