Drake Wins Second Sanctuary Basketball League Title, Compares Himself to Kobe
By Liam McKeone
Drake is a champion once more as his team took home the Sanctuary Basketball League crown for the second consecutive season. The rapper and Raptors superfan hit a championship-winning shot a few months ago and found himself on top again last night. But he didn't hit the game-winner. After the game, Drake told nearby cameras that he was channeling 2010 Kobe Bryant by playing defense even though his shot wasn't falling.
"I did what Kobe did in Game 7 against the Celtics. Shots not falling, you play f*****g defense." 😂 @Drake and his OVO team win back-to-back championships in his SBL league 🏆 pic.twitter.com/u4LnpAWo4v

The noted lack of championship belts is disappointing after Drake had several commissioned for the winners of the league back in March. Is it really a men's league championship without a belt? Who's to say.
