If Drake's rapping career ever fails, at least he has basketball.

We've all seen the images of him cheering on the sidelines of NBA games, dunking on Jimmy Fallon and even serving as a coach for the NBA All Star Celebrity Games.

But yesterday, the Toronto rapper took to the court to show off his own skills. He shared an impressive video on Instagram of his attempt to make a basket while lying down from the half-court line.
