Flo Rida’s Manager Ejected From NBA Playoff Game In Miami: Rapper Tells His Handler To 'Get Out Of Here Now'

Flo Rida's manager Lee Prince was ejected from the NBA Eastern Conference Finals match on Monday after coming to blows with Pacers star Jeff Pendergraph, but the "Low" rapper was the one who encouraged his handler to leave.

"You're my manager, but you've got to get out of here now," Flo Rida was overheard telling his manager, according to a televised report by TNT's Craig Sager.

The incident occurred during the faceoff between the Miami Heat and the Indiana Pacers following a verbal confrontation Pendergraph had with Heat point guard Norris Cole late in the fourth quarter, according to Sager.

Flo Rida and his manager were sitting in close proximity to the Pacers' bench when the spat occurred and Prince decided to jump in.

After engaging in a mild tug-of-war dispute with Pendergraph, Flo Rida's manager began trash talking the Pacers player and verbally attacked him, utilizing obscenities to distract him from the game.

Eventually, officials ejected Flo Rida's manager and asked him to leave. Prince initially refused to listen to the officials, until Flo Rida set the record straight for his manager.

"He and Pendergraph had been going back and forth," Sager said, according to TMZ.

"He got to be such a distraction that the officials came over and tried to eject him. He wanted to stay put. However, Flo Rida said, 'You're my manager, but you've got to get out of here now.'"

Flo Rida did not accompany his manager and was spotted with his arm around the empty chair next to him.
