The New York Knicks season opener wasn’t all celebration. Funkmaster Flex was involved in controversy during the team’s special night. As they took on the new-look Philadelphia 76ers, their fans enjoyed their championship rings and banner.

One would imagine the night went without any incident other than the 106-100 loss to LeBron James and Co. However, Funk Flex got into an altercation with another man during the game on Tuesday night. Now, videos of the incident have emerged.

Flex posted the footage on Instagram on Wednesday. The incident kicked off in a crowded area inside Madison Square Garden. He looked upset as he tried to get closer to the other man to confront him. He gets physical with the man, and people immediately run away.
