Team USA basketball piled on Drake’s misery by playing Not Like Us after defeating Canada

Drake is probably in his feelings after this one.

The rivalry between Drake and Kendrick Lamar means many things, but it just became even more impactful after an exhibition basketball game.

Sports fans are no stranger to rivalries on and off the court, even if we have not seen many athletes go the lengths that these rappers have done to show how much they dislike each other.

But the ongoing beef between the popular musicians briefly spilled onto the basketball court after a Wednesday showcase between Team USA and Team Canada in Las Vegas to prepare the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Despite a poor showing from Joel Embiid in this game, Team USA ended up with the victory. After the win, USA Basketball celebrated by playing “Not Like Us” by Kendrick Lamar on the Jumbotron.

We have seen athletes (including LeBron James, DeMar DeRozan, Russell Westbrook, and plenty more) seemingly take Lamar’s side by dancing to the song in public.

But the players on Team Canada, where Drake is from, may not have the same opinion about the music. Canada’s Dillon Brooks, who has his own longstanding beef with LeBron, certainly seemed frustrated after the game.

Drake is a massive sports fan and a proud Canadian. If I were him, I would probably be in my feelings after this one.

Meanwhile, these two teams could potentially play each at some point in Paris. If that happens, it is certainly worth watching for potential fireworks both on and off the court.
