In the last few days, there has been a lot made of rapper Drake apparently donning some tattoos that feature the numbers and nicknames of both Golden State Warriors All-Stars Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry.
Following Saturday's thrilling win over the Toronto Raptors, Curry took the approach of avoiding any more involvement in the strange situation, according to Anthony Slater of The Athletic.

Prior to that, Curry did note that he avoided talking to Drake during the game but did say that he would have trash talked to him if he had put on a better shooting performance instead of hitting just 2-of-7 attempts from beyond the arc.

Although this is a bit of a strange situation, Curry has had a strong relationship with the Grammy Award winning rapper over the last several years. However, this is something a bit different because it is a tattoo of his name on his body.
It is well known that Drake is a huge sports fan with much of that coming for his admiration for the NBA as he has close friendships with several top players in the league including Cleveland Cavaliers star forward LeBron James. He has also become one of the main celebrity ambassadors for the Toronto Raptors, who are his hometown team.
Durant also talked about Drake following Saturday's game jokingly stating that the media shouldn't give him the credit for the great atmosphere at the Air Canada Centre. He did indicate that he told the 31-year-old that he didn't want to talk about another man's tattoos.
This should eventually come back around to Drake giving a response toward giving his reasoning for getting the numbers of both Durant and Curry on his left arm. In other words, there could be another interesting turn in this situation coming up in the near future.
