Kristin Chenoweth Delivers Tony-Worthy National Anthem Ahead of NBA Finals [Watch]

Kristin Chenoweth was part of the opening ceremonies of the biggest game of the NBA season on Sunday (June 22). The Broadway star sang the National Anthem ahead of tipoff for Game 7 of the NBA Finals, and her rendition was nothing short of a Tony-worthy performance.

The Tony winner was a perfect choice for the occasion for more than one reason: Aside from her vocal chops, Chenoweth is a native of Oklahoma, and the game was a matchup between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers. The event was held at the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City.

After being introduced by the arena announcer, Chenoweth launched into a flawless performance. She sang the song with ease and wowed the crowd with her extended delivery of the line "O'er the land of the free."

The actress might have served as a good luck charm for the Thunder, too, as they went on to win it all 103-91, securing their title as NBA Champions.
