Rihanna partied late Sunday night without boyfriend Drake in a booth next to some happy New York Knicks.
Tim Hardaway Jr. celebrated his 22nd birthday and the Knicks’ sixth straight win at VIP Room on Sunday night with teammates Iman Shumpert, J.R Smith, Kenyon Martin and the Phoenix Suns’ P.J. Tucker, ordering Dom Perignon.
Rihanna arrived with friends after 3 a.m., in an oversize Chicago Bulls satin jacket, and spent the night dancing and drinking next to the Knicks.
