James Harden is apparently something of an international man of mystery.

During Friday night’s game between the Houston Rockets and the Toronto Raptors, rapper (and Raptors global ambassador) Drake told a funny story on the Toronto broadcast about seeing Harden at a hotel bar the night before. Drake said that the Rockets star was “drinking virgin Mai Tais” and “crushing mint tea leaves with his hands,” according to Michael Lee of Yahoo! Sports.

The results for Harden were mixed — he put up a game-high 40 points against the Raptors, but the Rockets lost 108-105, snapping a 17-game winning streak. At least Drake’s story was much more subdued though than the tales that we usually hear about the MVP frontrunner’s escapades off the court.
