Famous actor Bradley Cooper and rapper Meek Mill sat courtside to cheer on their beloved Philadelphia 76ers for the crucial Game 6 of an Eastern Conference playoff series against the New York Knicks.
Cooper sat behind the net closer to the New York bench wearing a red and blue bomber jacket with 76ers legend Julius Erving’s name and number 33 on the back.
Meek Mill was dressed in a black t-shirt, black shorts and black shoes to match his gold chains.
The “Maestro” actor and “Going Bad” rapper sat courtside two days after the celebrity feud at Madison Square Garden was in full swing with the likes of Sting, Offset, Cardi B, Ben Stiller, Julianne Moore and others.
Celebrities also in attendance included Eagles players AJ Brown, Saquon Barkley and Cooper DeJean, as well as team guard Big Dom.

Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown and running back Saquon Barkley were also at the game
Famed film director M. Night Shyamalan was also in attendance alongside Phillies players Brandon Marsh and Alec Bohm.
Oddly enough, Cooper’s only EGOT status award is a Grammy, for “Shallow” with Lady Gaga, which he recorded for the film “A Star is Born.” Cooper has been nominated for an Oscar five times, but has not won an Academy Award.
The Knicks survived and advanced past the 76ers with a 118-115 victory.
New York will take on the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Cooper, Barkley and the rest of the celebrities at the Wells Fargo Center were surrounded by a partisan Philadelphia crowd thanks to about 4,000 tickets given away to 76ers fans by the team’s owners.
The goal in purchasing the tickets was to keep Knicks fans out of Wells Fargo Center and give the team a true home field advantage.
Team minority owner Michael Rubin said on social media that these tickets would be given to first responders, healthcare professionals and other Philadelphia-based organizations.
During Sunday’s Game 4 in Philadelphia, Knicks fans made their presence known, making it look more like Madison Square Garden South.
