Toronto "Drake" Raptors

Whether you are a fan of Drake, The Toronto Raptors, or you really don't care about either one, this video shows the support for a city in which a celebrity or sports team can bring a city. 

This year Drake became the Toronto Raptors "Global Ambassador." The details of this position are unclear. 

We do know a few things:

• Drake was apart of the new conference in Toronto announcing that Toronto will host the 2016 NBA All-Star game.
• Drake stars in this Toronto Raptors pride video, for the start of the new Raptors season. 

It is rumored that Drake will be launching a new clothing line in conjunction with his new position with  the team. He also is said to be in the planning process for the re-branding of the Toronto Raptors which is set to take place in 2014-2015, the teams 20th year anniversary. 

Drake's celebrity status is no doubtably being used to pump up ticket sales and Raptors pride, but does it matter. Drake is a huge success the fact that he wants to give back to his hometown is refreshing.
