Drake, the chart-topping star behind hits like “One Dance” and “God’s Plan,” has never been shy about flaunting his success, but his latest Instagram post took things to another level. Over the weekend, the Toronto native gave the world a sneak peek into his jaw-dropping $100 million mansion, *The Embassy*, and the centerpiece? Drake’s NBA-Sized Court that screams luxury at every corner. Yes, it’s every bit as extravagant as you’d imagine.
Drake’s NBA-Sized Court: Betting, Celebrating, and… Flooding?!
The most talked-about feature? His NBA-sized basketball court—complete with a massive 21-square-foot pyramidal skylight. During the video, Drake is seen lounging on the court before jumping to his feet after winning an online bet, captioning the moment with, “HUNNNNNNNNDRED 😈 I’ll get my racks up anywhere even centre court.” The sheer luxury of enjoying a game of Stake’s online betting while lying on an NBA court? That’s just another Tuesday for Drake.

This sports paradise is just one of the many awe-inspiring aspects of his 50,000-square-foot estate. Designed by Canadian architect Ferris Rafauli, the mansion boasts towering 40-foot-high ceilings, modern Art Deco touches, and an entrance framed with limestone. Exotic wood floors stretch throughout the home, all part of Drake’s vision to create a place that will “stand firm for 100 years” in his hometown.
But even the mightiest homes can face Mother Nature’s wrath. In July, Drake’s mansion faced severe water damage after a series of torrential rains in Toronto. Videos shared by the artist show him wading through ankle-deep water inside his pristine estate, humorously quipping, “This better be Espresso Martini.” It’s a stark reminder that no amount of wealth can shield you from a little rain.
And if that wasn’t enough drama, just two months prior, The Embassy experienced a security scare. A man attempted to breach the mansion’s gates, claiming he was “there to see Drake.” Luckily, security stopped him in his tracks, and the Toronto Police later apprehended the intruder under the Mental Health Act.
Drake’s larger-than-life persona is mirrored perfectly in his mansion—there’s no denying the opulence. The inclusion of such personal, yet outlandish moments adds to the allure of the story, keeping readers hooked. His mansion, a symbol of wealth, has become a stage for both triumph and misfortune, creating a balance of excitement and relatability.
