Drake and NBA Hall of Fame guard Reggie Miller will go head to head over the NBA’s upcoming All-Star Weekend (Feb. 12-14), but not as you might expect.
This one-on-one match won’t be on the basketball court, but rather the pingpong table.

Miller called out the all-star hip-hop artist on Twitter Thursday (Feb. 4), saying he’d heard that Drake is “a master ping pong player” and wondered whether he’d be up for a match — a challenge Drizzy accepted.
Working on my NBA All-Star plans and my peeps say @Drake is a master ping pong player, maybe he’s up for a match ..

Master is a bit of a stretch. But then again you have to stretch before everything works out. So yes Reginald @ReggieMillerTNT… its a go!

Naturally, Drake’s hometown team the Toronto Raptors offered to help officiate, albeit with some notable bias.
