"The Boy" earned a spot next to Kyle Lowry in Toronto's locker room.

It looks like the Toronto Raptors have finally figured out what to do with DeMar DeRozan's empty locker at Scotiabank Arena - Give it to Drake.

As seen in the tweets embedded below, DeRozan's old locker next to Kyle Lowry has recently been given to the Raptors' personal court side heckler, aka "The Boy."

Drake, like most other Raptors fans, had nothing but kind words to say about DeRozan after the off-season trade that sent the All-Star shooting guard to the San Antonio Spurs in exchange for MVP candidate Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green. 

Things have worked out quite well for Toronto since the deal, as the Raptors have gotten out to an NBA-best 20-5 record. Through 19 games this season, Leonard is posting career-highs in points and rebounds with 25.6 and 8.5 per game, respectively.  

The Raptors will host the Philadelphia 76ers tomorrow night in a nationally televised game airing on ESPN at 8pm ET. Expect to see "The Boy" in his usual court side seat jawing with Sixers' big man Joel Embiid, or whoever is within earshot.
