On Wednesday night, the Toronto Raptors hosted the Charlotte Hornets in a battle of Eastern conference foes at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, and there sitting court side was non-other than the team’s ambassador and hometown hero Drizzy Drake.
During the game, Drake threw on the headset for a minute and chopped it up with Raptors broadcast tandem of Matt Devlin and Leo Rautins about the Raptors’ “woes” in the 3rd quarter. Drake decided to have some fun and make fun of Hornet’s guard Jeremy Lamb’s leg tattoo instead, saying “I feel like Jeremy Lamb has the answers to the 3rd quarter woes tattoo’d on his right leg.” “It’s cryptic, it’s drawing me in boys. I don't know there’s something about it.”
The Raptors would go on to win the game 126-113 primary thanks to the play of PG Kyle Lowry, who poured in 36 points on 12-of-18 shooting from the floor, including eight triples, and had six assists and five rebounds. Being the game’s MVP, Drake acted as the Raptors’ sideline reporter and interviewed Lowry on the court about his performance.
Drake first asked Kyle what got into him to put up the performance that he did, before going onto ask a second question about why he was wearing his jersey untucked in the back and not the front.
In addition to his sideline reporting, Drake made quite the hilarious meme when the Raptors caught him joking around while pouring a drink of Perrier in his cup.
