Kevin Hart‘s slowly but surely getting back on his grind, and that includes carving out time to hang with good friends like Jay-Z.
Kev and Jay were out Monday night in Bev Hills with an impressive crew at Avra. The mogul and the movie star kicked it with Murder Inc. honcho Irv Gotti and LeBron James‘ right-hand man, Maverick Carter.
They all hung out for about 3 hours inside the joint … where they played poker, broke bread and exchanged hugs on the way out. We’re guessing everyone was congratulating Kevin — who seemed to be moving around well — on his amazing recovery from last month’s scary crash.
As we reported, Kev continues to get intensive outpatient therapy, and based on this video … it’s working.
Earlier this month he returned to work to shoot promos for “Jumanji” … even though he’s not 100 percent yet. Check out this video … his progress is obvious.
