The Iceman Autographeth: Drake Gifted Signed Jersey From NBA Legend George ‘Iceman’ Gervin
From one Iceman to another.
From one Iceman to another, Drake was gifted an autographed jersey by NBA legend George “Iceman” Gervin.
Photos surfaced on social media over the weekend of Gervin signing his No. 44 San Antonio Spurs jersey, which he addressed to Drake as Iceman. “To: Drake, to Iceman From: 44 Iceman,” Gervin wrote on the back of the jersey.
Drake is an avid NBA fan and has used photos of Gervin on social media in the past while teasing his Iceman album title. Word must’ve gotten back to Gervin, who returned the favor by giving Drake his stamp of approval.
Gervin was one of the NBA’s most decorated stars from the second half of the ’70s into the ’80s. He’s a 12-time All-Star most known for his time with the San Antonio Spurs, who led the league in scoring four times and is now a Hall of Famer.
It’s unclear when or where exactly Drake and Gervin met up, as the 6 God was performing in Germany as part of his European tour over the weekend. He’ll head to Sweden and Denmark later this week for shows.
As for Drake’s Iceman album, a release date is unclear. Former NFL player Johnny Manziel, who is tight with Drizzy, hinted at a possible Iceman arrival coming this fall.
“Soon, probably, around the end of October, maybe early November,” Manziel said. “Birthday coming up. Coming back to Texas after that, I’m going to take him to a game this year. He’s going to Aggie Land.”
