Drake Playfully Disses Quavo & Justin Bieber During Raptors Game

Drake engaged in some lighthearted trash-talk about his recent basketball opponents Quavo and Justin Bieber while doing on-air commentary at the Toronto Raptors game on Friday.

Drake took a playful dig at Quavo and Justin Bieber while providing commentary during the Toronto Raptors game this weekend, after the three stars battled it out on the court in New York recently. The certified Raptors superfan and global ambassador took his usual courtside spot at the Toronto Raptors vs. Phoenix Suns game on Friday night to cheer on his favourite team.

He was even given the opportunity to go on air and offer up some commentary during the game. Though he spent a good portion of the game giving the Raptors encouragement while occasionally taking digs at some of the players, he took a brief moment to rip on Quavo and Justin Bieber. The "Intentions"-collaborators recently went head to head with Drake in a star-studded pick-up game, as Quavo was training for the NBA All Star Celebrity Game last weekend. Drizzy decided to stir up some drama, though all in good fun, of course.

"We don't wanna talk about scrubs on the air though, you know what I mean?" he said, in reference to his recent opponents. "Quavo and Bieber. How dare you?" In the same clip, Drake could later be seen doing a little salsa dance in celebration of the Raptors scoring. The Raptors went on to win 118-101, proving that maybe Drake should be part of the broadcast more often.

Monté Morris Divulges On LeBron James Trash-Talking Incident

LeBron James and Monte Morris got into it on Wednesday night.

LeBron James and Monté Morris got into a bit of a situation on Wednesday night as the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Denver Nuggets. As we reported yesterday, Morris said something to LeBron which led to a quick response from the Lakers superstar who began walking back in Morris' direction. Nothing came of their trash talk battle although the whole scene quickly made its way to social media where Lakers fan were in hysterics. Many began to speculate what was said although we'll never know for sure.

Yesterday, Morris took to Twitter where he commented on the altercation. As Morris explains, it's not as major as everyone thought it was and that he has a ton of respect for the NBA legend. Clearly, the two are on okay terms. 

“It’s always a dream come true to compete against a future HOF you’ve always idolized coming up," Morris explained. "Much respect to Bron and what he’s done for the game of basketball. Last night wasn’t as major as everyone is making it seem, it was just two individuals from the mud competing for a W.”

The Lakers and Nuggets are two of the best teams in the NBA and could potentially meet up in the NBA playoffs. If this happens, it will be interesting to see how Morris and James interact.
