The biggest award show in sports is set to never be the same summer. That’s right, this July 16th at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles; Drake will be hosting the 2014 ESPY’s. He now follows Justin Timberlake’s 2008 outing serving as the first musician to host the biggest night in sports-related awarding of the year. Drake’s no stranger to ESPN however, as he’s been a visitor for First Take with Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless, as well as becoming the Toronto Raptors Global Ambassador. Check after the jump for Drizzy’s announcement, then stay tuned for more details on the big event including a list of award nominees in the coming months.
