(Video&Photos) NCAA: Drake Pulls Out His Lint Roller, Shoots Airballs At Kentucky’s Midnight Madness!
Drake likes to root for winning teams and programs, well besides the Raptors, although to be fair they are a pretty decent franchise now. He has been a supporter of coach John Calipari and the University of Kentucky basketball team for some time now and showed them some love at the Midnight Madness opening to the season. Drake was the master of ceremonies and pulled out his old lint brush to start the night and then proceeded to entertain the crowd, but his air-balls he was shooting from three point land may of entertained them just the same. Hopefully he can pick up some skills from the kids on the team. Hit the jump.
