Will Barton = Drake

Nathan (@NathanBeighle):

They do not stay “started from the bottom” for nothing. This slogan that Drake wrote could be the theme song for Will Barton’s career.

He went from averaging minimal minutes and a dismal amount of points in Portland to a potential sixth man of the year candidate. Along with both coming from the bottom, both of these individuals in the prime of their career and at the top of their profession.

With Drake’s Views album recently soaring in billboards, the phenomenal small forward Barton will hope to take off just like Views did in this coming season.

Will Barton, who is also known as “The Thrill”, can electrify crowds, and he may soon be taking Drake’s nickname “Young Money” when his contract expires.

They both have a lot of potential and are also hugely fan-favorites. So as far as the their outlook going forward, the future looks bright for both Barton and Drake.
