Previous celebrity performances of the national anthem from Walk Off The Earth and Tenille Arts at the games have garnered mixed reviews from fans.
There will be no famous face singing O Canada at Scotiabank Arena for Game 5. Instead, the NBA says it will be up to @Raptors fans inside the venue, and across the country, to sing loud and proud.#WeTheNorth | #NBAFinalshttps://t.co/2eIE075pyj
