The power of Drizzy is strong.
Rapper Drake has brought the swagger back to Toronto and its Raptors, even though their playoff success hasn't been the best these past two seasons. However, at least people have taken notice of this team.
I stumbled across the photo above, and it definitely speaks volumes of the power of Drake. Now, of course, I'm joking. In what world would a Drake song have any influence on NBA voters picking a player to win an award?
Maybe this one, actually.
Let's take a look...
