Game 5 of the NBA Finals was overshadowed by the terrible injury suffered by Kevin Durant and even Toronto Raptors superfan Drake hated to see it happen.
KD returned from a calf injury last night and was balling out when he went down in the second quarter with an Achilles injury. The team will learn today just how severe the injury is but it's believed he tore it, which means he's done for this season and most of next.

As Durant was helped off the court, Drake gave him a pat on the back and looked visibly upset at the idea of the superstar getting injured.

After the game, Drake dedicated a post to KD, writing, "Was tough for any of us to even enjoy that game tonight after seeing this transpire. Praying for our brother. That’s my only concern tonight is your well being. 'The game needs me' is an understatement when it comes to 35. Please wish the best for this true warrior."
Durant was seen leaving the arena on crutches with a walking boot on his right foot.
