Lexington, KY – Drake has announced that he’ll be coaching an alumni basketball game on September 15th at the University of Kentucky at Rupp Arena. Drake is a longtime Kentucky Wildcats fan and he was even presented with a specially engraved “Drizzy” ring after their recent national championship win. He had also performed at their Big Blue Madness a few years earlier.

Kentucky coach John Calipari tweeted about the special event on September 6th: “Our Alumni Game will also have 2 teams of former UK players, including current & former pros along with 6 members of the 1996 title team. We’ll have 2 coaches for the teams & tonight I’m letting the #BBN know first that @Drake will be back in @Rupp_Arena as one of the coaches.”
