I just want him to see what would happen if he came to play in Toronto. Let him know what would happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It may have seemed to be done all in fun,\u00a0but the\u00a0NBA didn\u2019t take it too kindly and decided to fine the Raptors $25,000, according to ESPN.<\/p>\n<p>The NBA deemed Drake\u2019s plea to KD as a violation of it\u2019s anti-tampering rules. In September 2013, Drake was named as the Raptors Global Ambassador.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color:rgb(128,0,0);\">Sounds like someone may need to curl up with that rule book one night over the hookah.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Drake&#8217;s loose lips get him in trouble again.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4289,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[366,807],"class_list":["post-5974","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-headlines","tag-drake","tag-matrix"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7qLKy-1ym","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ohsodj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/drizzy_raptors.jpg?fit=250%2C237&ssl=1","post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5974","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5974"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5974\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4289"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5974"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5974"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ohsodj.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5974"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
