Megan Thee Stallion, known for her love of basketball, made waves once again over the weekend as she sat courtside at the United Center to watch the Chicago Bulls take on the Boston Celtics. The Grammy-winning rapper, who has formed a close friendship with WNBA superstar Angel Reese and celebrated the New York Liberty’s first-ever WNBA championship earlier this year, brought her signature energy and charisma to the NBA arena.
A Courtside Moment to Remember
As a customary gesture for celebrity guests, Megan was gifted a custom Chicago Bulls jersey upon her arrival. But the real highlight of the evening came when Benny the Bull, the Bulls’ beloved mascot, decided to shoot his shot with the H-Town Hottie.
During a timeout, Benny approached Megan and put on a hilarious display of charm, drawing a laugh from the rapper. The moment, which was caught on camera, had the United Center crowd roaring with approval. The jumbotron captured the interaction while Megan’s hit song “Mamushi” played in the background, creating an electric atmosphere.
The song was so popular with the crowd that it played a second time, reinforcing Megan’s undeniable star power and connection with the audience.
