Robert Kraft and Meek Mill will reportedly be sitting together courtside for Game 2
Robert Kraft and Meek Mill will reunite courtside at the TD Garden on Thursday night.
According to ESPN’s Sal Paolantonio, the rapper will join Philadelphia 76ers co-owner Michael Rubin in Boston for Game 2. When Mill was released from prison on bail April 24, Rubin picked him up in a helicopter and flew to the team’s series-clinching victory over the Miami Heat. Mill, whose songs provided the soundtrack to the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl run, is friendly with many of the 76ers’ players and staff.

Two weeks prior to his release, the Philadelphia native was visited in prison by the Patriots owner, who called Mill an “amazing young man.”
“I’m going to make a prediction,” Kraft said at the time. “And this is what amazed me about his depth and intellect. When he gets out, he’s going to turn this thing around and inspire a lot of other young people who have been treated unfairly. And he will turn this negative situation into something very positive.”
Bleacher Report’s Natalie Weiner reported that Mill will be sitting beside Rubin and Kraft at Game 2.
