  • 1. Toronto Raptors

    Drake has always been loyal to his hometown of Toronto. He can routinely be seen on the sideline cheering on his team, or the Raptors' opponent.

    Aubrey Graham might be one of the top-selling artists in the world, but many question the entertainer's fan hood.

    Drake's admitted his love for multiple teams and players, so it's time to see the bandwagons that Drizzy has hopped in his career.

  • 2. Kentucky Wildcats

    Drizzy has no substantial ties to the University of Kentucky, but it's hard not to root for the most talented team year-in and year-out. The popular singer even got to warm up with the Wildcats as he air-balled a jumper.

  • 3. Notre Dame Fighting Irish

    Drake's affection for former Notre Dame athlete Skylar Diggins is no secret. During his time hosting the ESPY's, Drake brought up Diggins to the stage and even got a forehead kiss. Welcome to the friend zone, pal.

  • 4. Toronto Blue Jays

    The singer always shows love for his hometown. The Blue Jays' stadium, Rogers Centre, is featured in Drake's "Headlines" from his album Take Care.

  • 5. Toronto Maple Leafs

    Drake can't forget about Canada's true sports love: hockey. The Maple Leafs have drawn support from the Toronto-born rapper on his Twitter.

  • 6. Texas A&M Aggies

    Drake has referred to former Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel as his brother. While Manziel was still in college, Drake rocked a custom Manziel jersey while cheering on the Heisman Trophy winner.

  • 7. Houston Astros

    Drake's "Houstatlantavegas" isn't just a friendly reminder of his favorite cities to root for, but also a way to describe his fan allegiances. One thing's for sure: You can't call Drake a bandwagon-er for rooting for the Astros.

  • 8. Toronto FC

    In 2012, Drake donned the Toronto FC jersey and practiced at the team's facility. That move seemed to pay dividends for Toronto with Drake reportedly recruiting prospective players to the squad.

  • 9. Miami Heat

    Following an incredible 2013 NBA Finals, Drake tried entering the Miami Heat's locker room to celebrate. Apparently, the security guards didn't get the memo and he wasn't allowed entrance. Don't worry, the platinum-recording artist partied it up in South Beach with the champs.

  • 10. Barcelona

    Drake's stated before that he is a fan of players over institutions. That much is clear in the rapper's soccer choices. He became pals with Barcelona star Neymar in 2014.

  • 11. Villanova

    Say what you want about Drake, but he'll always be a Wildcat fan. Now discerning which Wildcat fan he stays (most) loyal to could give you a headache.

  • 12. Manchester United

    Former Manchester United star Rio Ferdinand invited Drake to train with the Red Devils, therefore making Drake the biggest Man U fan at the time.

  • 13. Manchester City

    Quickly disowning Man U fans, Drake jumped ship to rival Manchester City in a move rarely seen across the pond.

  • 14. San Francisco 49ers

    From futbol to football, Drake's apparently a fan of red and gold, sporting a 49ers jacket. If only he could've recruited Jim Harbaugh to stay.

  • 15. Seattle Seahawks

    After the Niners' heartbreaking loss to the Seahawks, Drake noticed an opportune moment to jump bandwagons. He attended Seattle's practice with fan of his music, Pete Carroll.
