OVO Sound boss and Toronto Raptors global ambassador Drake believes it’s only right his hometown team landed Kawhi Leonard. The 6 God went to social media this week to draw a big connection between the former San Antonios Spurs champion and the Raptors.
Drizzy went to his Instagram Story Friday (July 20) to present his argument for Leonard embracing the Raptors lifestyle.

Kawhi is just combination of the words Kawall and Wallahi. The man was destined to play for the Raptors.

Earlier in the week, Drake penned an open letter bidding farewell to longtime Raptor DeMar DeRozan and welcoming Leonard to the city.
Along with Leonard, the Raptors also received the Spurs’ star player Danny Green.
