Rapper Ja Rule has placed a curse on the Minnesota Timberwolves … and the Milwaukee Bucks could also be guilty by association:
You just jinx yourself talking to the GOD this way… your CURSED NOW!!! You won’t win a championship for the next 30 years… AND KAT IS LEAVING!!! Apologize and I’ll lift the CURSE!!! 😘 kiss of death… https://t.co/RzUn4vKx2Y

At the halfway point of the Timberwolves' matchup against the Bucks on Saturday night, the 42-year-old New York artist put on a halftime show that went horribly wrong in a hurry: Everything from technical deficiencies to fans not acquainting themselves to the songs.
The show even got so out of hand to a point where Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo came back out on the court to begin warming up for the second half, signifying that enough was enough:
Giannis came out early to get up shots during Ja Rule’s halftime show 😂

Of course, Ja took offense and voiced some fury via Twitter overnight:
Y’all really be on my dick… 😭 let’s be CLEAR my sound was fucked up at first and didn’t come on when it was supposed to but I rocked that bitch… thanks for the love Milwaukee!!! Great win my streak continues… lol

Whether the rapper believe he “rocked” the performance or not, he likely won't be returning to Milwaukee's Fiserv Forum for another '90s night in the near future.
Despite a roller-coaster evening, the Bucks still managed to trample the Timberwolves 140-128, improving their record to 45-14.
Milwaukee has the best record in the Eastern Conference, giving them the slight edge over the 44-16 Toronto Raptors.
As for the Minnesota Timberwolves, who fell to 28-31 with the loss, they may need to implore Ja Rule to rescind any bad juju he now has for the organization.
