Rapper Travis Scott may be on a basketball high this season after his drink was spilled on the court during the New York Knicks' 121-102 victory over the Brooklyn Nets.

With 9:40 left in the fourth quarter, Knicks guard Immanuel Quickley lost control of the ball before it flew out of bounds and hit Scott in the hand holding his drink. Quickley contributed 19 points to the win.

The drink then spilled all over the arena floor where Scott was sitting courtside, resulting in a slight delay when cleaning staff arrived to clean it up.

“Oh, wow, that's a Guiser,” Nets commentator Ian Eagle exclaimed as he watched a replay of the spill. “Look, I don't know if I've seen a celebrity spill (a drink) like that.”

Scott then proceeded to open another can of whatever he was drinking before arena employees had even finished cleaning up the original spill.

Scott's drink wasn't the only explosion that took place Wednesday night at the Barclays Center as Knicks power forward Julius Randle erupted and scored 19 of his 26 points in the first half of the win.

At 16-11, the Knicks matched a season high by going five games above .500. New York won for the fourth time in six games and also snapped a six-game losing streak in Brooklyn with its first road win against the Nets since December 26, 2019.

Randle made nine of 20 shots and also grabbed seven rebounds.

Donte DiVincenzo added 23 points and hit five of New York's 13 three-pointers as the Knicks led for the final 46-plus minutes.

Jalen Brunson shook off a 6-for-15 showing, contributing 16 points, eight assists and seven rebounds as the Knicks shot 46.3 percent from the field.

Josh Hart helped by recording a double-double of 10 points and 13 rebounds.

Randle scored 12 points as the Knicks consistently scored inside and held a 32-20 lead after the opening quarter. The Nets were within five with about four minutes left in the first half, and New York held a 60-51 lead at halftime.

The Knicks scored the first 11 points of the third quarter and had a 71-51 lead on Randle's jumper with 9:18 to go.

After the Nets pulled within 84-77 on Nic Claxton's layup with 2:27 to go, New York grabbed a 90-77 lead heading into the fourth and scored the first eight points of the final period.
