Drake who?

The most recognized celebrity in Toronto for Game 2 of the NBA Finals was none other than former president Barack Obama.

Obama sat with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver as the Raptors and Golden State Warriors battled in Scotiabank Arena.

The 44th president was given a standing ovation during the first half.

Obama was accompanied by Raptors president Masai Ujiri as he walked past the Toronto dressing room prior to the game.

Other celebrities at the contest were: J. Cole, Shawn Mendes, The Weekend and of course, Drake, who was sporting a hoodie meant to troll injured Warrior Kevin Durant.
