The Toronto Raptors were fined $25,000 for tampering charges due to comments
made by Drake about Kevin Durant.
暴龍隊在本週被聯盟法罰款2.5萬美金，原因是擔任球隊代言人的加拿大歌星Drake在
公開場合，公然發表對今年MVP Kevin Durant的徵招宣言。
“You know, my brother [Oklahoma City Thunder star] Kevin Durant was kind
enough to come to the show tonight and watch us,” Drake said. “I just want
him to see what would happen if he came to play in Toronto. Let him know what
would happen.”
Drake在當天活動是這麼說的：「你知道嗎，我的兄弟，也就是雷霆球星KD真是個好人，
因為他願意在今晚與我們共同享受這場演唱會，我想讓他知道假如他跳槽到多倫多，會
發生什麼事情！」
The NBA offered to rescind the fine if the Raptors cut ties with Drake, who
draws no salary from the club.
不過聯盟在幾天後，又提供了暴龍撤銷這項罰款的機會，其條件是球隊要切割與Drake
的關聯。事實上，Drake也並沒有從暴龍那裡獲得額外的代言費用。
