In case you didn’t already know, Sarah Nurse is a sports superstar! She has spent her whole life playing sports, including basketball, volleyball, and lacrosse. Not to mention, she represented Canada at the 2018 Winter Olympics (coming home with a silver medal) and now professionally plays for the Toronto Furies of the Canadian Women’s Hockey League. 

She gained even more notoriety when none other than fellow Canadian Drake posted an Instagram story about her. Shortly after the legendary rapper posted a photo of her, she gained 2,000 followers. 

She is not the only superstar in the family though. Her cousins Darnell Nurse and Kia Nurse are a professional hockey player and basketball player. Her uncle Donovan McNabb was also a quarterback in the NFL and her uncle Richard Nurse was a wide receiver for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
