Drake Clowns DeMar DeRozan, Threatens To Pull Down His Jersey if It's Retired

2 weeks ago 4

Drake, avid Toronto Raptors fan and trash-talker, appears to have taken a stance on how he feels about Sacramento Kings player DeMar DeRozan.

In a special game between the Toronto Raptors, DeRozan's former team, and the Kings, the Canadian team retired Vince Carter's jersey. Drake wasted no time inserting DeRozan into a hypothetical, saying, "If you ever put up a DeRozan banner, I’ll go up there and pull it down myself."

In a post-game press conference, the Compton-born player simply replied, "He's gonna have a long way to climb to take it down."

Drake also aimed several charged insults at the player, including calling him a "goof" and "pussy."

The animosity could possibly be traced back to Drake's widely publicized feud with Kendrick Lamar. The volatile beef saw several charged diss tracks being traded, both sides making wild accusations ranging from infidelity to pedophilia.

The feud culminated in Lamar's "Not Like Us," which features a lyric shouting out DeRozan and mentioning his move to the Kings: "I'm glad DeRoz' came home, y'all didn't deserve him neither."

DeRozan previously said that Drake was "still his man" after the former Raptors player appeared in Lamar's "Not Like Us" video.

"Drake's still my man, still my man, none of it changed," DeRozan told the Sacramento Bee. "It's so easy to get overlooked and look at it for what it looks like, but at the end of the day it's music, entertainment. Two of the biggest rappers in the world went at it from a competitive standpoint, and they battled it out."
