Drake may not be able to cheer on his hometown Toronto Raptors in person this year during the NBA Playoffs but the four-time Grammy-award-winning artist sent his team a care package to let them know he is with them in spirit.
The Raptors have been on the road longer than other teams in the NBA. The team left Canada on June 22 in order to quarantine prior to traveling to the Walt Disney World Resort and held an early training camp in Fort Myers, Florida.
Raptors rookie Terence Davis and several other players posted pictures on Instagram of the custom-made candles from Drake and OVO, courtesy of @NBABubbleLife on Twitter. The players appreciated the gesture by Drake and Davis even said the candles make him feel right at home.

Of course, Drake has become a vocal fan of the Raptors in recent years and is the global ambassador for the team. He is often seen courtside near the Raptors’ bench but with the NBA returning to play at Disney without fans, Drake will need to show his support on social media when the season resumes on July 30.
