Kobe Bryant chats with Drake on bench during overtime vs Raptors (Video)

Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant chatted with rapper Drake while sitting on the bench during a timeout in the late stages of overtime of Sunday's win against Toronto.

Drake is a Raptors fan who grew up in Toronto, but his connections hooked him up with courtside seats at the Staples Center just a few seats down from the Lakers bench. With 41.2 seconds left in OT and the Lakers up by 7, Bryant took a quick moment to chat with Drake. Not sure what Kobe said, but it must have been funny because Drake was in stitches.



Earlier in the game, Bryant became the first player in NBA history to score at least 30,000 points and dish out 6,000 assists.
