Sacramento Kings owner Vivek Ranadive is making it known he's got DeMar DeRozan's back amid the hooper's feud with Drake ... rocking a Kendrick Lamar shirt courtside when the Raptors came to town!
Cameras spotted the 67-year-old wearing a tee that said "They Not Like Us" for Wednesday's contest at the Golden One Center in Sacramento -- a clear message to the Toronto-based rapper after comments he made on Saturday's broadcast.

The beef was ignited after Drake was asked if the Raptors should retire DeRozan's jersey -- after having spent nine seasons in the Six.
The 38-year-old said if they ever did, he would personally take the banner down himself. Later in the game, he appeared to call DeRozan a "p****."
While DeRozan didn't believe his appearance in the "Not Like Us" video was that big of a deal -- saying it was more for visuals -- it's clear the 6ix God didn't care for his reasoning.
DeRozan did not comment on the shirt ... but with it being his first year with the Kings, we take it the 16-year veteran appreciates the support from ownership.
Wednesday marked the final time the two teams will meet in the regular season ... so it seems like this might be the final installment of the saga -- that is, unless Drake gets in the booth and takes shots at Vivek.
