LOS ANGELES (AP) — Lil Wayne says that after a recent NBA playoffs ticket snafu he felt unwelcome and “unwanted” at the Oklahoma City arena and isn’t planning to return.
The rapper tells the Associated Press that two Thunder players — Kevin Durant and James Harden — had reached out to offer him tickets to Saturday’s fourth game of the Western Conference Finals.
But he says that while “the players want me there, I don’t want to feel — I’m going to still feel unwanted.”
A team spokesman has said the rapper — who claimed he was denied entry Thursday — was welcome at the arena with a ticket, but that Lil Wayne’s representatives had insisted that he sit in the front row, and none of those seats were available.
