Shakira's Appearance At Game 4 Proves Miami Heat Are Regaining Star Power

Shakira caused a stir on the Internet when she was spotted at Game 4 between Miami Heat and Boston Celtics in Eastern Conference finals

Time was, a major celebrity attending a Miami Heat game was no big deal. 

The Heat were at the center of the NBA universe when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh were teammates from 2010-14. Their presence attracted all the big-name celebs on a nightly basis. 

It hasn't been the same since but the Heat's recent run in the playoffs is once again drawing the stars. Singer Shakira was recently spotted at Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Celtics. 

Her appearance automatically prompted questions from gossip websites if she was dating Heat star Jimmy Butler. Shakira recently split from ex-boyfriend and former soccer player Gerard Pique. 

No word on whether this is true about Butler, but Heat are once among the "it" teams in the league.
