The Bay Area rapper’s music was playing during the Warriors’ shootaround on Monday before Game 2.

While the Sacramento Kings secured an early 1-0 lead over the Golden State Warriors, there was some drama in the stands during Saturday’s contest at Golden 1 Center.

Beloved Bay Area rapper and known Golden State Warriors fan E-40 was escorted from the game by Golden 1 Center security. After the game, the veteran Bay Area musician and entrepreneur released a statement on his removal from the game and requested the Kings organization for an investigation.

Warriors’ Klay Thompson joins rapper E-40 at San Francisco Giants vs. Los Angeles Dodgers game

Klay Thompson was in attendance with E-40 for the Giants’ rivalry game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at San Francisco’s Oracle Park.

As he continues his rehab and gears up for his long-awaited return to the Golden State Warriors’ lineup, Klay Thompson took a break to take in a game at the diamond.

With the San Francisco Giants and Los Angeles Dodgers fighting for the top spot in the National League’s West division, the Warriors shooting guard was in attendance for the rivalry battle at Oracle Park. While wearing a bucket hat from the Masters, Thompson was spotted in the crowd.

Thompson provided a good luck charm for the Giants. Behind a home run from Brandon Belt, a two-run RBI triple from Steven Duggar and more RBIs from Brandon Crawford, Darin Ruf, Curt Casali and Mike Yastrzemski, the Giants surged past the Dodgers, 6-4. With the victory, the Giants grabbed a tight one-game lead over the Dodgers in the NL West.

If the Giants clinch a playoff spot and meet the Dodgers in October, Thompson might have to make another appearance at Oracle Park.

Watch: Steph Curry working on new dance inspired by E-40’s ‘Verzuz’ performance

After Bay Area rap icons E-40 and Too Short battled in the latest edition of “Verzuz,” Steph Curry showed off a new dance celebration.

Adding to the lore of his renowned shot from beyond the arc, Stephen Curry’s post jumper shimmy has grown part of his signature long-distance jumper. However, the two-time Most Valuable Player might have a new celebration for the 2020-21 campaign. 

On Saturday, Bay Area music icons E-40 and Too $hort joined forces for the latest “Verzuz” rap battle. While each rapper performed snippets from their storied music catalog, E-40 and Too $hort were showing off different dance moves. During the performance, Curry was taking note.

After the show ended, the point guard was asked on Twitter about replacing his signature shimmy with one of E-40’s moves from Verzuz. The six-time All-Star replied with a video featuring an E-40 inspired dance.

Before the Verzuz battle was underway, Curry joined E-40 on a FaceTime call to preview the event and make a song request.
