NBA fines Raptors for Drake shoutout

Not too long ago Drake did this:

Earlier this week, the NBA reportedly fined the Raptors $25,000 for tampering with Kevin Durant.

Drake is officially a “brand ambassador” for the Raptors, in his hometown of Toronto. That means like his musical stylings (I am still confused over who he is. . . also, get those damn kids off my lawn!), he is kind of an owner. The NBA believed that was enough to fine the team for tampering with a player under contract.

Here is betting this is the last time Drake shouts out a potential Raptors acquisition at his concerts.
