Boosie couldn’t help himself.
The rapper, who sat courtside during Game 6 of the Knicks-Hawks first-round playoff series on Thursday night, was hype as he recalled Knicks guard Jalen Brunson colliding with him just before halftime, as seen in a video on social media.
“Jalen Brunson ran over me,” Boosie, who is a diehard Hawks fan, said in the video, which was set to a beat.
“We had a real collision. Yeaaaahh I need the video.
“Who got the video? Jalen Brunson ran over me. I need the video.”
He added that Brunson did “WWE s–t to me.”
Brunson crashed into Boosie when he attempted to keep the ball inbounds and dove into the front row as the Knicks had a 83-34 lead against the Hawks with 49 seconds before halftime at State Farm Arena.
The three-time NBA All-Star jokingly grabbed Boosie’s arm and pulled him down to the floor before running off.

Boosie, who performed at halftime, really leaned into the moment, grabbing his knee while lying on the court.
The pair laughed afterward.
Taking to his Instagram, Boosie shared a video of Brunson coming back to check on him as they shook hands.
“I WANT A COURTSIDE SEAT N THE GARDEN … NEVER BEEN TO MADISON SQUARE GARDEN,” Boosie wrote.
The Knicks closed out the Hawks with a 140-89 victory — the largest win in a playoff game in franchise history.
Forward OG Anunoby led the Knicks in scoring with 29 points.
Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns had his second triple-double of the series, finishing with 12 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.
Brunson added 17 points.
