Drake addressed it all through the use of some emojis, including one of a salt shaker.

Drizzy also took to his IG Stories to post a screenshot of a comment that supported his boisterous method of rooting for his home team of the Toronto Raptors.ย

Earlier in the day, the head coach of the Milwaukee Bucks, Mike Budenholzer, called Drake out while speaking to reporters.ย 

"I don't know of any person attending the game that isn't a player or coach that has access to the court," Budenholzer said. "I don't know how much he's on the court. It sounds like you guys are saying a lot [...] There's certainly no place for fansโ€”or whatever exactly is what Drake is for the Raptorsโ€”on the court. There's boundaries and lines for a reason. The league is pretty good about that."

Prior to that, Georgios Dimitropoulos, aย senior executive at anย agency that represents Giannis Antetokounmpo,ย took aim atย Drake with a hypothetical situation. "Imagine a gig & an athlete on VIP seats, right next to the band, stands up on the stage just to show off during the entire game, knowing cameras are on him, occasionally even massaging the singer,"ย Dimitropoulosย wrote on Twitter. "Security&him both allow it. Never seen anything as disrespectful as this before..."

Drake reached a new level of courtside antics this week.

Giannis Antetokounmpo's rep was not happy and WENT OFF on Drizzy.
