P. Diddy’s lawyer saves his daughter from diving NBA player
- Share via
Sitting courtside at NBA games poses some serious hazards, and we’re not just referring to your wallet.
There’s also a chance that a 200- or 300-and-something-pound-man can come flying at you full speed.
Just ask P. Diddy’s lawyer.
Kenny Meiselas, who represents the rapper, along with Lady Gaga and Nicky Minaj, took his daughter to a Chicago Bulls vs. New York Knicks game on Wednesday.
Before he knew it, Bulls rookie swingman Tony Snell had decided to dive for a loose ball, perhaps momentarily forgetting that his team was down by 20 points.
When Meiselas saw that the 6-foot-7, 200-pounder was headed straight for his daughter’s seat, he acted fast, moving her out of harm’s way.
The Knicks went on to win, 83-78. But the MVP award surely goes to Meiselas.
