Jay-Z and Beyonce Congratulate Thunder Fan for $20K Half-Court Shot
Jay-Z and Beyonce attended the Oklahoma City Thunder game Thursday night and witnessed a fan hit a half-court shot at halftime to win $20,000.
This is the fifth time this year that a Thunder fan has hit half court shot at half-time, according to ESPN.com.
The music couple is no stranger to the front row of basketball games, but this one in particular is special because the couple traveled all the way to Oklahoma to cheer on their friend Kevin Durant, who is signed to Jay-Z's Roc Nation sports.
Brad Brucker, 33, made the $20,000 winning shot during the Thunder's game against the Los Angeles Clippers Thursday evening. Fan Cameron Rodriguez won a similar shot two days ago at a game against the Denver Nuggets.
"We might go broke after these guys, they're hitting every half-court shot," Durant jokingly said after the game.
Beyonce and Jay-Z watched the game from Durant's court-side seats next to his family.
