Nicki Minaj and ‘Inside the NBA’ Crew in a Rap Cypher (VIDEO)

The TNT set was visited by Nicki Minaj during “Inside the NBA” Thursday night, and the crew cooked up a freestyle session with the rap superstar.

Shaquille O’Neal, Grant Hill, Kenny Smith and Ms. Minaj all dropped rhymes.

But it was host Ernie Johnson who stole the show, and hilariously dropped the mic.
