Toronto continues to rep for their guy Drake by renaming their practice facility after his record label OVO. Drake is a frequent courtside guest at Raptor games and now he gets a little more piece of the action with his own team building. According to TSN’s Josh Lewenberg, the official name of the facility will change from BioSteel Centre to OVO Athletic Centre.
Here it is! The Toronto Raptors Training Facility (Formally known as BioSteel Centre) is now OVO Athletic Centre. According to TSN’s @JLew1050, Drake will have a key to the facility. #WeTheNorth @CP24 @Raptorspic.twitter.com/iIIoTscXkr
As if having the building named after your own record label wasn’t enough, it’s reported that Drake will also have his own key to the building. Not only does he have his own key to the practice building, but he also has his own locker stall at the game day arena. If one thing is clear, Drake is a different kind of royalty north of the border.
The playoffs are right around the corner and the Raptors are in prime position to compete for a title in the Eastern Conference. Drake should be a fixture courtside for when they go on their quest for their first NBA title in franchise history.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin are two of 40 names listed as participants in an illegal college acceptance scam. The investigation had over 200 FBI agents working on the case named “Operation Varsity Blues.”
The scheme alleges that millions of dollars in bribes were paid in order to get under qualified kids into elite schools. The schools in question are Yale, USC, Georgetown, and Stanford.
Lori Loughlin is accused of paying $500,000 to have both of her daughters listed has crew recruits, when– in fact– neither of the daughters rowed at all. The ploy was made in order to get both children into USC. Loughlin and her husband face charges of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest service mail fraud.
Felicity Huffman is accused of masking $15,000 in charitable donations in order to have her daughters SAT scores enhanced. It is alleged that her daughter took the exam in a controlled environment where the proctor would correct her answers after she had completed the test. The FBI has phone conversations and emails on file to confirm the accusations.
In one of the more bizarre headlines to come out in recent memory, the two actresses have been the subject of jokes and criticism on social media.
When I think of all the kids who studied hard, stayed up late, had part time jobs to pay for their college application fees, and then were denied rightly deserved places in elite colleges because some rich fuckwads cheated for their already privileged kids— I’m disgusted.
ADMISSIONS OFFICE: ur child was not accepted to our college FELICITY HUFFMAN: then i will have to do a crime ADMISSIONS OFFICE: u can just donate some money & we'll let em in FELICITY HUFFMAN: a crime i shall do ADMISSIONS OFFICE: just make a donation FELICITY HUFFMAN: crime time

Last night the Thunder played a road game against the Utah Jazz and Russell Westbrook got into a spat with a fan. Westbrook was clearly agitated by what was said to him from the heckling fan and went on a verbal tirade, attacking both the man and his wife. From the video alone, it looks like Westbrook may have gone too far, but as the night went on, more layers unfolded.
After the game, the media found the man who got into the verbal altercation with Westbrook to get his side of the story. The man, Shane Keisel, played the role of victim and claims that Westbrook went too far for what he claimed to be a harmless conversation. In the video below, Keisel calls Westbrook “classless” and expressed his displeasure with the comments directed at his wife.

The story took social media by storm and led some people to investigate the background of Keisel and found that he has had clear issues with Westbrook in the past. His twitter account is filled with racially charged tweets towards Westbrook, associated with his support of President Donald Trump.
So Shane Keisel, who has tweeted for Russell Westbrook to go back where he came from, who yelled racial remarks at Westbrook tonight, and who punctualizes his racist remarks with MAGA, also spent 17 years as a police sargeant for Utah Highway Patrol. Why did Kap kneel again? pic.twitter.com/YQrlUf7o8J

After the game, Westbrook gave his side of the story and seemed to have cleared the air on what had exactly happened. It appears that Westbrook may have been justified in his anger towards the fan, especially when you consider his tweets.
Russell Westbrook says the comment from the Jazz fan that set him off was: “Get down on your knees like you’re used to.” pic.twitter.com/i0vIlblSwJ
This incident brings forward the debate on whether fans should be able to yell at players and stay in the arena. It also questions whether players should be allowed to retaliate when they hear things directed towards them. The story dominated social media last night and should be an issue that carries on over the next few weeks.
