    "First of all, I'd like to say that despite what everyone on the internet thinks, I do not team jump," Drake responded.

    "In the past I've always supported the player and not the institution—unless we're talking about the Kentucky Wildcats and the Toronto Raptors; I will never stray from them," he continued. "But whether it comes to soccer or football or basketball, I have a lot of friends that play for a lot of teams. I'm not team jumping. I'm a supportive friend."

    Then he specifically addressed the likelihood of becoming a Cavs fan.

    "Of course, I'm gonna go watch games in Cleveland. If not for LeBron—who I said is a brother to me, we've got three kids from Toronto on one team, plus Manziel who is part of our family and our brother," he said. "I definitely have to look into some real estate in Cleveland and spend some months of the year out there. Like I said, my teams will always forever be who they are but I will support the group who has shifted to Cleveland."

    "For Cleveland, a place that I’ve been to time and time again when I’ve been to touring, it's gonna be great for them," Drake told Complex. "I’d love to see them grow."

    So even though Drake says he's not a bandwagon fan, he's also said that he'll definitely check out some real estate in Cleveland.
