While his Toronto Raptors won't suit up in this year's NBA Finals, Drake has still found a way to participate in the Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks series.
6 God's October's Very Own brand has teamed up with ESPN for a university exclusive to celebrate the 2024 NBA Finals.
US fans will have the opportunity to purchase the limited edition black and gold jacket via the OVO app at 10am. ET on Thursday morning (June 6).
Combining the worlds of sports, music and fashion, the OVO x ESPN Heavy Duty Jackets are sure to be a collector's item. Only 175 were produced in total and are priced at $698 retail.
The 2024 NBA Finals and October Very Own logos pop out from the jacket's sharp chest with a gold border. The sleek sleeves feature premium leather and feature the NBA On ESPN logo, while the back features a combination of the signature OVO owl and ESPN branding. Inside the jackets are also embroidered with the specific model number of the 175 made.
Drake isn't the only one from the hip-hop world to make his way to the NBA Finals. OVO rival Metro Boomin stars in a commercial ahead of Thursday night's (June 6) Game 1 between the Mavs and C's.
The hoops clip finds Young Metro in a suit and white bandana behind the boards spinning as We Don't Trust You“Runnin Outta Time” featuring Future provides the soundtrack.
“You shot a great ad for the @NBA Finals on @ABC! game 1 tomorrow,” “BBL” producer Drizzy wrote to X when he announced the ad.
The NBA Finals tip off Thursday night at 8:30 p.m. ET in Boston, as Jayson Tatum and the Celtics take on Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks for the right to hold the Larry O'Brien Trophy in a best-of-seven series.
