During the NBA Playoffs, celebrities coming out to shine is part of the spectacle. The Celtics’ game against the Bucks on Sunday afternoon was no exception, with Boston diehard fan Jack Harlow in attendance.
You know, the very same 24-year-old American rapper that hails from Louisville, Kentucky, Jack Harlow? Full name Jackman Thomas Harlow? Signed to Don Cannon and DJ Drama’s record label Generation Now? Years active 2011-Present?
Yeah, yeah, I know you and I definitely know who Jack Harlow is. Who wouldn’t! But it appeared that the NBA officials working the game — Scott Foster and Ed Malloy — were not familiar with the famous American rapper that everyone is aware of.

Harlow, of course, took exception to Foster and Malloy’s nonchalance at his guest appearance. He’s famous American rapper Jack Harlow. Come on!

Foster, Malloy, and the greater NBA referee community put this issue to bed from their representative Twitter account a few days later.
They confirmed they are, indeed, aware of famous American rapper Jack Harlow’s existence:
We would like to refute @SportsCenter's claim that we don't know you. pic.twitter.com/YRUvCDzq1y

Hysterical. Who could forget such classic hits!
One thing’s for sure: Foster and Malloy might like Harlow to attend another game to apologize, and he no longer has a gripe with them.
