Chris Paul went absolutely nutty yesterday … breaking an NBA Playoff record while leading the Phoenix Suns to victory over Curren$y‘s New Orleans Pelicans, but Spitta Andretti is taking it in stride.
The NOLA rap legend was courtside Thursday night in his hometown to witness CP3 shoot a perfect 33-point game. Following the 115-109 victory, Chris still had enough energy to talk smack to Spitta and his manager Mousa in a viral moment on the sidelines.
The footage is hilarious … CP3 was still in go mode as Curren$y eventually playfully pushed him off.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Curren$y tells TMZ Hip Hop of the heartfelt moment “Chris was just talking s***,” as they’ve been pals for a long time. Remember, CP3 started his future Hall of Fame career with the then-New Orleans Hornets.
Despite the loss, Curren$y says the playoff experience unified the city — “The Pelicans put it all on the court for us and we filled the arena for them,” Spitta continued. I feel like this turnaround season is definitely gonna be a booster shot to the season ticket sales.”
Spitta’s having a personal come-up in 2022, having dropped off 2 projects this year alone (“Land Air Sea” Chopped + Slopped reissue w/ Cash Fargo and “Continuance” w/ Grammy-Nominated producer The Alchemist) — and recently blazed his way through a heralded Tiny Desk Concert … dropped, appropriately, on 4/20.
Plenty of mellow vibes from Curren$y to accompany off-season recovery for his Pelicans … although, we’d also highly recommend LeBron James‘ off-season regimen.
