NBA spoke with Raptors about Drake during ECF

The NBA spoke to the Toronto Raptors during the Eastern Conference finals about Drake’s activity and presence on the sideline, a league spokesman told ESPN.

Last year, the NBA warned the rapper, who is also a global ambassador for the Raptors, after a confrontation with then-Cavaliers center Kendrick Perkins during a playoff series between Toronto and Cleveland.

Drake drew attention this year for leaving his courtside seat in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals to give Toronto coach Nick Nurse a shoulder massage.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver issued a memo earlier this year reminding the league’s franchises to state and enforce their fan conduct policies.
