Ryan Reynolds is the People’s Choice Award-winning Canadian star while Drake is famous for popularizing singing and R&B sensibilities in hip-hop. Both Canadian artists have their own fields of expertise. One is a stunning actor while the other makes people shake their bodies with his music. Additionally, Reynolds has been in the industry longer than the rapper. Although both stars are huge names in the entire world, only one of them won when the Canadian basketball players had to choose between the two.

Despite the Deadpool actor having a huge fan following, these players sided with one of the most influential rappers in the industry. But there is a twist here as well.

Canadian basketball players chose Drake over Ryan Reynolds as their favorite countryman

Is it not tough to choose between two of your favorite people belonging to an entirely different world? While Drake creates amazing music, the 46-year-old actor has no connection to it. On the one hand, the Free Guy actor makes beautiful, hilarious, and brilliant movies. But Drake is far from that idea. Yet, regardless of the differences, both actors have one thing in common: they are both artists. Therefore, when the Canadian basketball players were asked who was their favorite Canadian; the majority of them chose Drake except for one player.

The ‘Best I Ever Had’ singer rules the hearts of most basketball players but one. Out of 14 players in the clip, only Dillon Brooks chose the Maximum Effort owner. After seeing Brooks choose the Green Lantern actor, fans went gaga over it. Fans of the 27-year-old player showered love on him. Brooks is famous for his excellent body control. Now, him choosing Reynolds added to fans’ list of admiring the player more.

Although the Mint Mobile owner is not connected to basketball yet, he certainly is in love with football. Currently, the Vancouver-born star co-owns the world’s third-oldest professional football club, Wrexham AFC, with Rob McElhenney. After the Hollywood duo’s takeover of the club, it is thriving and making history.

The Hollywood duo changed Wrexham AFC for good

Before Reynolds and McElhenney took over Wrexham AFC, the club was in dire need of a lot of changes. After these actors entered the picture, the Welsh club made history by getting a huge promotion to League Two. Additionally, these new owners also brought in some of the brilliantly skilled players to their team. They even brought out Ben Foster from his retirement.

After the recent match, however, Foster announced his retirement from the club after playing for two years. The goalkeeper is one of the major reasons the club made it to League Two. So, the English player also received words of appreciation and gratitude from the Red Notice star.

While Ryan Reynolds is busy making history with the Welsh football club, loyal fans like Dillon Brooks still love the actor in his homeland. If it were up to you, who would you choose? Tell us in the comments below.
