Rapper Rick Ross, who is worth a staggering $150, per Celebrity Net Worth, was also at the game. Bueckers was spotted getting her picture taken with the music icon.

Some fans pointed out that she had met another famous rapper, Waka Flocka Flame, the previous day.
“She ain’t exactly with him. They’re both at the heat game.. so they took a picture together and then went back to their separate seats. I promise you, he wasn’t trying to hang out with either one of them. He barely shook their hands after the picture,” stated one fan.
“Rick Ross had no idea who she is,” said another.
“Look like he stop her for a pic,” said another fan.
