ESPN NBA broadcaster Jeff Van Gundy was "heartbroken" that pop star Rihanna didn't know who he was before halftime of Thursday night's broadcast of Game 6 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and L.A. Clippers.
Van Gundy set himself up for heartache when he jokingly suggested in the first half that Rihanna was stalking him, which may be due to her frequent appearances in the front row of several postseason games. Lisa Salters followed up on Van Gundy's behalf and approached Rihanna at halftime about the subject, but Rihanna needed Salters to point out who Van Gundy is.
Van Gundy was crushed, saying that the revelation that Rihanna didn't know who he was deflated his whole night.
