Sacramento Kings Anthem Singer Kneels During Performance

Leah Tysse sang the National Anthem before Monday’s Sacramento Kings – Maccabi Haifa exhibition game. When she got to the end of the song and the “land of the free” line, she took a knee. The crowd reacted favorably.

Tysee explained her decision on her Facebook page.

Meanwhile, the Kings again had their arms locked during the Anthem. It appears that will be the team’s form of protest through the season.
