Drake isn’t one to hold back when it comes to dropping names of NBA stars, but his latest unreleased song, “Shopping Spree,” takes it up a notch. He makes a striking reference to Cade Cunningham, the Detroit Pistons guard, in a way that’s got everyone in the music and sports communities talking.

From bars about Stephen Curry to Cade Cunningham Drake’s lyrics just got a lot wilder

Drake throws out a daring line, mentioning, “Sleeping in the Pistons locker room, I'm on another mission," he raps. "Cade Cunningham left his Crocs, yeah I f—ed you in them.”

This bold lyric has sparked discussions among fans from both sides, with many wondering about the details of Drake's connections to NBA players. Although Drake often mentions basketball stars in his songs, this specific line is particularly striking due to its daring nature.
Fans are going wild on social media after this after thi, one user on twitter commented, “Cade better not have a bad game now 😭”. And another suggested that he is wearing cade’s crocs right now.
Drake's love for the NBA is no secret. He’s called out players like Stephen Curry in "Still Here" with the line, "Hittin’ like that 30 on my jersey, man, I’m gifted," and Andrew Wiggins in "Draft Day." These references usually highlight the players' talents and accomplishments. But bringing up Cunningham in such a personal way is a first, sparking plenty of discussion among fans and analysts about what it could mean.
Another interesting twist to this story is when Drake was seen chilling in Cunningham's locker during a trip to Detroit. Those photos from that moment now feel even more meaningful, especially with the lyric in mind, hinting at a closer bond or maybe just some friendly teasing between them.

Cade Cunningham is proving himself as a standout player this season. With an impressive average of 25.9 points per game in his fourth year in the NBA, he has played a key role in guiding the Detroit Pistons to a solid 43-36 record, earning them the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference.
