Philadelphia 76ers big man Jahlil Okafor has expressed his fandom for Chance the Rapper in the past, telling Rolling Stone prior to being drafted that he listens to him on the regular and digs his mixtape, "Surf."
Sunday night at Budweiser's Made in America festival in the City of Brotherly Love, Okafor was on stage for Chance's performance of "Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1," a track from Kanye West's "The Life of Pablo" album.
Chance and Okafor are both Windy City boys, having grown up in Chicago.
Repping the Sixers during the show seems to be the best way to win over the crowd. At last year's festival, Beyonce rocked an original 76ers red dress as one of the headline acts.
