Raptors autograph Broncos sweater to honour Humboldt
After paying his respects to those effected by the Humboldt bus tragedy by wearing a Broncos jersey court side for the Raptors Game 1 showdown against the Wizards on Sunday, Drake made sure the beautiful gold and green sweater got an extra touch.
Last night was bigger than basketball.

Speaking briefly and sombrely about the vast scope of the accident, the Toronto-born rapper removed the No. 14 jersey from his back and had each Raptors player sign in in a show of support for the victims, their family and the community.
The raptors dedicated their win — the first opening-round Game 1 victory in franchise history — to the 16 victims and 13 injured in the deadly wreck in Saskatchewan last Friday.
