The magic of sports video games in 2018 is that you can do far more than just play as your favorite players or teams. Now, you can create a player that looks almost exactly like you (or, like the you that you want to be) and become a star athlete, even if your real life self is far from having that kind of sports talent.
You also can imagine what it’d be like if, say, Drake was an NBA player in NBA 2K18. We know Drake is a huge basketball fan, serving as the global ambassador for the Toronto Raptors and regularly referencing hoops in his songs, but we also know he is not a particularly good basketball player in actuality.
So, video games are going to be the place where he can compete with the best of the best on the hardwood, and thankfully the legend Shady00018 is here to give us a taste of what it would look like if Drake were an incredible basketball player. The full mixtape of virtual Drake destroying various NBA stars can be found below, and it’s incredible. His dunk on Kevin Durant is absolutely hilarious.
He throws down a windmill dunk on Durant who crumples to the floor like Darren Rovell trying to defend Hot Sauce. That’s easily the funniest part of this video, followed by him yamming on Embiid and leaving Joel stunned, him aggressively dribbling behind his back before popping a jumper in Steph Curry’s face and his dunk on LeBron.
