A few weeks ago we passed along word that rapper Lil’ Wayne was unhappy LeBron James and Dwyane Wade hadn’t acknowledged him at Miami Heat games. Weezy is such a dedicated fan that one of his first moves after being released from prison was to watch a Heat-Hornets game, but he was hurt the stars didn’t so much as throw a glance in his direction.

Well after complaining to Rolling Stone in an interview, Lil’ Wayne finally got his wish.

LeBron James apparently gave Weezy a head nod during the Heat-Pacers game on Tuesday night. Asked after the game if their beef was squashed, LeBron played coy saying “I don’t know. That’s a question you gotta ask him. We just, for all the fans that come watch us play… we just try to do our job and win ball games.”

Dwyane Wade was apparently surprised to hear that LeBron had acknowledged the rapper, asking LeBron “you did?” when he heard about the incident after the game. As for Lil Wayne’, he told NBC Miami he was satisfied with the nod.

And just like that, the world’s dumbest controversy came to an end.
