DRAKE wasted no time in welcoming the Toronto Raptors’ newest star in cheeky fashion.
The Canadian rapper was excited to see the team take Gradey Dick at the NBA Draft last week.
Dick, 19, was one of the stars of the show in Brooklyn with his loud red sequin suit.
And the 13th overall pick was unveiled by the Raptors this week, where he held up his new jersey.
Dick posed with the red outfit which sported his name and the No 1 on the back.
Drake couldn’t help but have a laugh at the teen’s expense on his Instagram account.
He posted a picture of Dick with his jersey and said: “How good girls flex their body count.”
Dick was delighted that he was followed by Drake just hours after the Raptors drafted him.
He also shouted out the Toronto-born rapper in his interview after being selected.
The 19-year-old said: “Gotta get out there, see Drake. I haven’t seen him a bunch, but I’m looking forward to that.
“I need him to wear my jersey. That’s how I know (I’ve made it). That’s my priority.”
Drake is often court side at Raptors games and has been a global ambassador since 2013.
He released two songs to celebrate the team’s NBA championship in 2019 and also had the trophy on an album cover.
