On the first episode of Netflix's "King Of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch," Drake is looking for a rare Lebron James Triple Logoman card.

Drake and LeBron James have quite the solid relationship, but that doesn't make the latter's collectibles any easier to find. Moreover, the Toronto rapper appeared on the first episode of the new Netflix series "King Of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch," which premiered on Friday (April 28). Hosted by auctioneer Ken Goldin, the show revolves around the hunt for sports collectibles, and its first episode is called "Hail to the King." Along with their teams, Drizzy and Goldin look for a rare Triple Logoman card of the Lakers star, which features each NBA logo for every team he won a championship in. What's more is that only one exists.

Still, Drake tried his hand at opening a box of unknown sealed cards. During his browse, he found an Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway Logoman card worth $50,000, so that's at least something. Also, he got cards of other famous basketball players like Isaiah Thomas and Larry Bird. The 6 God even found a very rare card featuring Michael Jordan. Despite his best efforts and trying to get lucky, Lebron James' Triple Logoman card was nowhere to be found. For sports fans, the 36-year-old's bad luck is something fans often pin their losses on.

For example, Toronto Raptors fans blamed Drake for the team losing against the Chicago Bulls, thus losing their chance to compete in the playoffs this year. CBS Sports Radio's Pat Boyle was one of many to point accursedly at the rapper. He claimed that Drake was to blame for DeMar DeRozan's daughter screaming during every Raports free throw. "That’s on Drake, really," Boyle expressed. “If you don’t have Drake and if that doesn’t work the niceties of offering her things to make her stop shrieking, you get physical. You get her out."

However, that's not to say that the "Privileged Rappers" MC is always on the unlucky side of sports. In fact, he recently won a $1 million bet after Gervonta Davis beat Ryan Garcia in their much-anticipated boxing match. Given his success, he's always going to win (or lose) big in the sports game. Whether he finally finds Lebron James' Triple Logoman card remains to be seen. Regardless, stay posted on HNHH for the latest on Lebron James and Drake.
