The viral moment occurred after the musician, 46, was seen tossing a basketball that went out of bounds to Heat forward Max Strus during the third quarter, according to Miami Herald. He then hyped up the crowd by clapping his hands and pumping his fists in the air at the game, held at the FTX Arena in Miami. "That was funny. I didn't even notice him until the end, what he was doing to get the crowd fired up," Spoelstra said at a post-game press conference. "But, I loved it. That's awesome. I was humbled to be part of that moment. He's such a great fan there. Over the years, I've said hello a few times. But, that was the best interaction and that was genuine."
