Last night, Drake was court side, at the Houston Rockets vs Oklahoma City Thunder game, in Oklahoma City. These are some of the two worst teams in the NBA, but Drizzy was in attendance, supporting fellow Canadian, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, of the Thunder.
Drake also had fun interacting with other fans who were court side, particular an older couple, who loved seeing that Drake was displayed on the big screen.
Couple Appears To Not Recognize Who Drake Was
When Drake was shown on the big screen at Paycom Center, this couple seemed as if they didn't know that Drake is one of the biggest artists in the world. They quickly started speaking with him though, in an attempt to get to know him better.
In the background, Drake's chart-topping "Way 2 Sexy" single, featuring Future, and Young Thug, was also playing. Despite the popularity of this record, it still didn't seem to help the older couple next to Drake, in jogging their memory, of who he might be.

Drake Takes Court Side Selfie With Couple
Drake definitely looked to be having a lot of fun with this couple though, as he went on to take a selfie with the two. This ended up being posted to his Instagram stories, where he captioned the photo "My new parents." Drake and the man both flashed huge smiles, while the man's wife still appeared to be confused, at what was going on in that moment, and who Drake was.
Drake Ended Feud With Kanye West Last Month
In November, Drake was also part of another viral topic on social media, which was that he and Kanye West finally became friends. This came after feuding for over three years, and it being reignited, back in August.
That was after Drake dissed Ye, on Trippie Redd's "Betrayal" single. Ye went on to post what was supposed to be Drake' Toronto home address, which simply earned a response of Drake laughing, on Instagram.
Drake and Ye went on to post a photo of the two together, in front of Drake's Toronto home, which signaled the end of the feud. They were also joined by Houston music mogul, J Prince, in the photo. The celebration was on from that point, as they went inside the home, and the party was hosted by legendary comedian, Dave Chappelle, who praised Drake and Ye for finally putting their differences behind them.
