Summertime in LA means Drew league basketball is on any hoops connoisseur’s agenda. With lines starting at 8 AM and stretching down the block, you know something special is taking place inside of King Drew magnet’s gym. On Sunday a match of the 2012 championship game between the Baron Davis led “LAUFND” and rapper Game’s “Money Gang” was the highlight game of the week on Sunday. Game bet BD $50K on the outcome.

Both teams brought out the heavy hitters with BD actually suiting up for LAUFND as well as OKC Thunder star Kevin Durant. Game had a few NBA heavy weights of his own to add to the mix with former Lakers Metta World Peace and Shannon Brown as well as ex-Spur Stephen Jackson, all rocking with the Money Gang. Plus Raptors DeMar Derozan whose been playing with Game the last three weeks.

KD dropped 35 on  had a crazy one-handed dunk but missed a last second three that would’ve given LAUNFD the game. The Money Gang has only lost once this season.

 

The missed three-pointer.
