OKLAHOMA CITY — Rap superstar Drake dropped into Oklahoma City on Wednesday night to sit courtside at the Paycom Center.
The avid NBA fan watched as fellow Canadian Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dropped 39 points in the Thunder's 114-110 loss to the Houston Rockets.
“We know each other, being from the same city, SGA said after the game. "He loves hoops, I love music."
SGA and Lou Dort — another Canadian Thunder player — made sure to stop and greet Drake on the court.
