    He follows players. You'll notice he's not going to be going to any Miami Heat games anymore.
    But when it comes to actually supporting a team he only really supports the Raptors.

    yea of course he would support some players. if you were famous and in know how with athletes. you'd root for your friends too meanwhile still having your main team.

    anywho fine is justified.

    this team is owned by corporate with deep bucket. projected to become one of biggest NA Market. 25k is not significant . Drake job is to spread the luv for this team in Canada , where basketball is 3rd major sport at best, not to recruit anyone in particular .

    Maybe my memory is bad. Didn't JayZ recruit Melo when he was under contract with Denver?

    Having Drake support your team is well worth a $25K fine.
    We have the same thing with Bun-B and Slim Thug but on a smaller scale. No disrespect to Bun B, he's a legend but Drake is one of the biggest entertainers in the world now and I'd say a $25K fine for Bun B is well worth it if he continues to rep the Rockets.

    I am glad we do not have some rapper as our global ambassador.
