A little lint-rolling by Drake has gone a long way.

If you recall (and really, who will ever forget?), the 27-year-old rapper was spotted last week at the Toronto Raptors game vigorously freshing up his pants while sitting courtside.

As a result, the Raptors couldn't help themselves and decided to team up with dryer sheet company Bounce to create the official Drake lint roller.

On Wednesday, 1,200 of the rollers were handed out to fans outside the Air Canada Centre. Including Drake himself!

"Thanks @BounceFresh for helping keep 1200 #Raptors and #OVO fans plus @Drake lint-free tonight!" the Raptors organization tweeted along with a photo of Drake proudly holding not, but two of the instant collector's items.

Clearly, the guy is in on the fun.

After all, soon after his lint-rolling usage went viral, Drake took to Instagram and posted a pic and captioned it, "Lint rollers on deck."

Not to mention, Drake does serve as team ambassador for the Raptors as well.
