The Toronto Raptors won their first Game 1 of a playoff series for the first time in 17 years on Saturday, edging the Washington Wizards 114-106 to take a 1-0 lead in the first round of the NBA Playoffs.
For those watching at home, you likely noticed Raptors global ambassador Drake in his usual courtside seats, this time, proudly sporting a Humboldt Broncos sweater to pay tribute to the 16 lives lost in the tragic bus crash earlier this month.
Following the game, Drake went into the Raptors locker room and addressed the team about Humboldt and signed the jersey along with the Raptors players.
It was a nice gesture during an evening that proved to be about much more than basketball.
