Barack Obama attends NBA Finals Game 2 between Raptors, Warriors

Scotiabank Arena might need to supplement "O Canada" and "The Star-Spangled Banner" with "Hail to the Chief" ahead of Game 2 of the NBA Finals. 

Former President Barack Obama attended the Toronto Raptors' match-up with the Golden State Warriors on Sunday night. 

The Toronto crowd treated the former president to a long ovation during the second quarter. 

Obama hosted the Warriors at the White House once during his eight years in office, and met with the team during their trip to Washington D.C. this past season. Steph Curry reportedly facilitated the meeting, continuing the friendship they developed during Obama's second term. When Obama visited the Bay Area this year, he stopped by Ayesha Curry's restaurant on President's Day and shared the stage with Steph at an Obama Foundation event. 

If Obama and Drake meet courtside, there is no word if he'll tell the rapper that he thinks Kendrick Lamar is better.
