Drake finds himself caught up in yet another drama. While on tour in Australia, an Aussie fan decided to play a prank by handing him a camouflage Toronto Raptors jersey—a cheeky nod to his hometown. But when Drake unfolded the jersey and noticed the name on the back, he wasn’t impressed. Instead of accepting the gift, he immediately tossed it back into the crowd, showing his clear displeasure.
This reaction isn’t just about a misplaced jersey. It seems Drake is still upset over DeMar DeRozan’s support of Kendrick Lamar during their ongoing feud. Back when DeMar was playing for the Raptors, he and Drake had a friendly relationship, with Drake often spotted at the games. But everything changed when the Raptors traded DeMar to the San Antonio Spurs after nine years—an exchange for Kawhi Leonard that eventually helped the Raptors win their first NBA Championship.
Drake likely feels deeply betrayed by DeMar’s choices. DeMar not only appeared in Kendrick Lamar’s video for the track “Not Like Us,” which took some serious shots at Drake, but he also joined Kendrick on stage during a concert in LA. In Drake’s eyes, these moves were more than just friendly collaborations; they felt like personal slights.
DeMar was even asked how he felt about the trade a few days later. Although his exact words were not revealed, it was obvious that he wasn’t exactly happy with the situation either. DeMar claimed his appearance in the video was simply a favor to a fellow Canadian, not an attack on Drake. But judging by Drake’s reaction to that jersey, it’s clear he’s still holding a grudge.
