Kevin Hart wasn't even halfway through enjoying his 2018 NBA All-Star Game weekend experience before coming up short of respect while attending one of the event's functions on Saturday, February 17. While moving along in the company of his son Hendrix, the comedian happened to bump into Russell Westbrook, who joked about barely noticing him.
"So, look... I know Y'all can't see him yet. Wait, look around, you see around... Is he around?" Westbrook said after whipping out his cellphone to capture the encounter for his followers on social media. The Oklahoma City Thunder star scanned left and right from his visual point, before lowering the lens to show who had suddenly popped up.
"Oh, there he is. Oh, hey, hey how you doing buddy?" he said as Hart cracked a smile. Westbrook then directed a comment at Hendrix (who is quickly catching up to his dad), and Hart interceded to let his boy know that he's got the green light to throw hands should the reigning league MVP have anything disrespectful to say.
Hart is a fixture at the annual star-studded event, ever since his days as a four-time All-Star Celebrity Game Most Valuable Player. So he'd be pretty easy to sight for anyone who was a fan of the exhibition between the years 2012 and 2015.
