Despite the Indiana Pacers‘ early exit for the 2016 postseason, Paul George once again demonstrated that he’s one of the premier talents in the NBA, and with the right group around him, he could potentially lead a team to a title at some point (won’t be easy with goliaths like San Antonio, Golden State, and Cleveland). […]

The officials have been under heavy scrutiny across the NBA playoffs, from Monday night’s fiasco in San Antonio to a missed call on the Raptors‘ DeMar DeRozan on Sunday.

Officiating has become the story of the NBA playoffs as of late, which is unfortunate.

During the 4th quarter run, Rodney Stuckey turned the ball over, and fell right at Raptors ambassador Drake‘s front row seat as the crowd screams. This […]

It’s safe to say Drake may be the biggest Toronto Raptors fan in the world. He is a staple at every Raptors home game and currently serves as the global ambassador for the franchise. The rapper loves his team so much that he’s willing to yell at an opposing team’s multiple-time All-Star after a missed […]

Here we go again. When the Pacers lost to the Toronto Raptors in Game 3, Drake took to Instagram to troll Indiana.
