Snoop Dogg has zero chill. Just moments after Kawhi Leonard lifted the NBA title for the Toronto Raptors, the legendary rapper carried on with his campaign to recruit Leonard to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Being himself a long-time Lakers fan, Snoop Dogg posted a not-so-low-key image of Kawhi wearing the Purple & Gold colors of the Lakers.

It's not surprising that Snoop Dogg was so eager to try and recruit the Finals MVP winner to L.A., especially considering how impressive Leonard was not only throughout this epic Finals series, but during the entire season as well.
Along with Golden State Warriors superstar Kevin Durant, Kawhi is one of the biggest names headlining this offseason's free agency class. Leonard is on an expiring deal, and will become an unrestricted free agent in the summer, so in Snoop's mind, there is no better option for the two-time NBA champ than to bring his talents to Hollywood.
Kawhi's rumored move to the Lakers is nothing new, with the 27-year-old reportedly inclined to playing in his home town of L.A. Then again, there is also the matter of the Los Angeles Clippers, who themselves have also been identified as serious contenders to acquire the services of Leonard.
However, his recent success with Toronto will presumably make it harder for Kawhi to turn his back on the Raptors. The chances of Leonard signing an extension with the organization is now at an all-time high.
Speaking of high, Snoop Dogg could care less about all this, as he seems to be adamant that Leonard will be playing alongside LeBron James next season.
