The Toronto Raptors were supported in their first playoff game of the season on August 17 with a truly unique version of the national anthem. Jessie Reyez's "O Canada" performance captivated audiences as she sang from the top of the CN Tower.

Before the team's opener against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday, Toronto's own Reyez sang from atop the tower's edgewalk in her home city.

This is definitely a unique way to ring in the playoff season, and made sure the team put on quite the show in the 6ix despite the fact they're playing down in Orlando, Florida.

Reyez, 29, was nominated for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the 2020 Junos. She certainly put on quite the show on Monday in support of the city's athletes.

The Raptors are playing their first playoff game in Florida, where the NBA is playing all of their games.
