Nikola Jokic-led Denver Nuggets took a 3-1 lead over Jimmy Butler's Miami Heat after winning Game 4 by 108-95 at the Kaseya Center on Friday night in the NBA Finals 2023. Many celebrities attended Friday's game in Miami including UFC superstar Conor McGregor, who appeared to knock out Miami Heat mascot Burnie at the halfcourt circle.

After being out for two years with a broken leg against Michael Chandler, Conor McGregor will return to action later this year against Michael Chandler in the TUF season 31. The Irishman last won a UFC fight in 2016 and had suffered two consecutive defeats to Dustin Poirier, however, McGregor could get a UFC title shot if he wins against Chandler in December.

McGregor was in attendance for Game 4 of the NBA Finals 2023 between the Nuggets and Heat at the Kaseya Center and displayed his 'Notorious' side during the halftime show. Sporting a red velvet outfit, the 34-year-old fighter entered the court and hilariously punched Burnie, who fell on the ground with just one left hook. McGregor finished with his second punch at the grounded Heat mascot while the crowd booed the mixed martial artist.

After taking down Burnie, Conor appeared to spray his recovery product on the Heat mascot. Take a look at the hilarious incident from another angle:

Conor McGregor also met Brazilian football (soccer) star Neymar Jr., who is friends with Miami Heats star forward Jimmy Butler, at the courtside. Both athletes greeted each other with a hug at the Kaseya Center as the pictures have gone viral on social media.

The punch from McGregor reminded his historic 18-second knockout against Jose Aldo to win the UFC featherweight title in 2015.  Mcgregor is currently coaching in the TUF season 31 and will face Chandler sometime in December this year but the dates are not yet announced.
