In the season that teams were experiencing high levels of success, accompanied by Drake’s bandwagon support, things usually went awry when it came to the playoffs.
“He wore my jersey two weeks before that too,” Lamar said in response to Drake rocking Ravens gear before the playoff game.
But, but back to Drake’s fandom track record…
Think about the song “Draft Day,” which was about Andrew Wiggins and Johnny Manziel –Manziel flamed out of the league in three seasons while Wiggins is in the NBA having a serviceable career, albeit far off from the franchise-altering superstar he was set to be when the song was released–especially with a nickname like Maple Jordan.
Serena Williams, who was in the midst of her greatest season while chasing a grand slam (winning all four major tennis events in one year) before she was spotted kissing Drake.
And let’s not forget about the time There was the Drake appearance at the McGregor weight in before the Khabib fight, or when he dropped a 60K bet on the Warriors to win the finals in 2016, the year they blew a 3-1 lead to Lebron James’ Cleveland Cavaliers.
