TORONTO – The moment Warriors forward Kevin Durant missed a one-handed dunk, he did not just feel the scorn from thousands of Raptors fans jeering at him. Durant had to hear from one particularly vocal fan sitting courtside. The person was Drake, the hip-hop artist that considers himself a devoted Raptors fan.
“I hated missing that one,” Durant said following the Warriors’ 127-125 victory over the Raptors on Saturday. “I had to ignore him. I heard him talking some trash too on the sideline.”
Therefore, Durant immediately shut Drake up with a two-handed dunk on the next possession.
