Drake made a surprise appearance at UCLA on Tuesday to play some pickup basketball. While I am sure the guys in the gym were pumped to see him, they could not have been pleased to see him in a full Kentucky Wildcats uniform.

No word on whether or not he shot any air balls. But it had to be fun for him to walk on the Bruins campus after Kentucky embarrassed them in the Sweet 16 in March. I mean, he did seem to have a little extra swagger in his step...even for Drake.

Make no mistake, not everyone was as light-hearted about one of Kentucky’s most famous fans wearing that shade of blue around UCLA’s campus. Some fans went public with their disapproval.
Nah, you can’t wear that here. @Drake https://t.co/vTAPb1TPyO

While there have been no reports about LiAngelo Ball fleeing campus, I would not be surprised if he got spooked by the Kentucky jersey and took off.
And who knows, maybe after the game was finished Drake took some time to give his new friend Zion Williamson a call.
