Drake Tosses DeMar DeRozan Raptors Jersey at Concert; Kings Rally Behind Star Forward
Drake's recent concert saw him throw away a jersey belonging to DeMar DeRozan, igniting discussions about their fractured relationship while the Sacramento Kings voiced their support for DeRozan.
It’s clear that Drake and DeMar DeRozan, once friends when the Sacramento Kings forward played for Drake’s hometown Toronto Raptors, are now polar opposites. During a recent performance in Sydney, Australia, Drake dramatically threw away a DeRozan Raptors jersey that was tossed to him.

The Sacramento Kings, DeRozan’s current team, embraced the moment by chiming in on social media, showcasing support for their star forward.

DeRozan, now in his first season with the Kings, honed his skills in Toronto for nine years, establishing himself as a fan favorite in the city. Meanwhile, Drake’s perspective on DeRozan remains complicated, particularly after DeRozan publicly sided with Kendrick Lamar in a past dispute with the rapper.
Recently, Drake hinted about a potential Raptors jersey retirement for DeRozan, to which DeRozan humorously responded wishing him “luck.”
