Sean “Diddy” Combs linked up with a former NBA point guard in pris0n following his recent switch.

The rap mogul moved to FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey on the back of his sentence and has taken on a new job, one far removed from the luxury he’s accustomed to.

It didn’t take him long to see someone he knows very well in former basketball journeyman Sebastian Telfair, who’s currently serving a six-month sentence.

Diddy and Bassy are very familiar with each other, with the rapper and label owner having several friends from the NBA community, including LeBron James, who was slammed for hyping up his parties following his arrest.

TMZ obtained photos of the two speaking in the pris0n yard, noting that the former player’s publicist confirmed it was him.

Both men are big names in New York. Diddy is, of course, a celebrity, while Telfair is an NY basketball icon.

The cousin of former New York Knicks superstar Stephon Marbury, Telfair was popular around the Big Apple from his high school days and went straight to the pros, with the Portland Trail Blazers taking him 13th overall in 2004.

While Diddy isn’t leaving Fort Dix until May 2028, Sebastian only has three months left, having reported to pris0n in August after failing to adhere to court-ordered community service and not reporting to the probation office.

His incarceration stems from his involvement in a scheme to defraud the league via bogus insurance claims. He was convicted along with fellow ex-NBAers, including Tony Allen, Glen Davis, and Darius Miles.

Interestingly, Telfair was very supportive of Diddy before he was arrested, going viral after telling Vlad TV the video of the rapper beating Cassie outlined a simple case of a couple fight, and that women can drive men to hit them.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
