Drake shares a new video of his 3-year-old son Adonis shooting hoops to his music
The "Laugh Now Cry Later" rapper took to his Instagram story on Easter Sunday to show off his son Adonis's basketball skills to his followers.
The 3-year-old, whom Drake shares with French model Sophie Brussaux, counted as he made three shots into a mini-hoop.
In the background, his mother can be heard cheering him on while Drake's hit song "What's Next" is playing.

The 34-year-old artist took to social media again on Tuesday to share a photo of his son hanging out on a full-sized basketball court in Drake's Toronto mansion, which he previously showcased in his music video for "Toosie Slide."
In the photo, Adonis can be seen pointing to the "24" on the wall. The number, along with the "8" alongside it, were added to the court in March 2020 as a tribute to the late Lakers player, Kobe Bryant, whose jersey numbers were 8 and 24.
While Drake was famously private about having a son following his "secret" birth in October 2017, he has since felt more comfortable sharing his kid with the world.
In May 2020, he opened up about his feelings toward posting photos of his son on social media.
"I posted those pictures. It was great for me. It was great to just share that with the world," he told mentor Lil Wayne on an episode of Apple Music's Young Money Radio. "I just woke up one morning and I was like, 'You know what? This is just something that I want to do.'"
"I want to be able to go places with my son and share memories with my son. I don't want to feel like just because of a life choice I made to be a 'celebrity' that I got to make everybody live under this blanket, so I just wanted to free myself of that," he added.
Since then, he's shared various moments with his son with the public.
Some moments have included Adonis' first day of school and his 3rd birthday.
Drake also shared a photo of his son in November 2020 sporting a heart-shaped hairstyle, which matched a haircut the rapper has been seen with while promoting his forthcoming album, "Certified Lover Boy."
