Drake had his fun during Raptors' Game 6 win over Bucks image

The Raptors are headed to the franchise's first-ever NBA Finals, and it only took the second-largest playoff comeback in team history to do so.

Kawhi Leonard's stretch of dominance continued as his game-high 27 points were enough to beat Milwaukee for the fourth straight game.

Raptors superfan Drake didn't have much to cheer for Saturday night until late in the third quarter. The Raptors were trailing by as many as 15 points as the Bucks worked to push the series back to Milwaukee for Game 7.

It looked like the rapper might have to heed the advice on the back of his sweatshirt that read "Kawhi me a river."

But as the Raptors mounted a 26-3 run starting in the third and Leonard sent home a dunk heard around the world, Drake's antics finally ignited.  

With the game all but over, Drake couldn't help but send the Bucks into the offseason with a nice little wave. 

Who could forget about the Drake curse? It's finally over — for now at least. 

The win was surely stressful on Raptors head coach Nick Nurse. Drake is always around to help relieve the tension.
