Longtime NBA announcer Marv Albert is denying reports of a fight with rapper 50 Cent on "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

According to reports, punches were thrown after members of 50 Cent's entourage didn't recognize Albert. The pair appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on the same night.

Albert told the Associated Press that he wasn't close to the exchange, which the announcer said began when a member of the rapper's group was prevented from using a phone by show security.

"I couldn't even tell you what the guy looked like or the security guard looked like," Albert said.

There was even one account that he was punched by 50 Cent.

"They embellish. It keeps getting embellished more than anything else," Albert said. "What do you say, it's just wrong."
