The crowd at Oracle Arena will get to “witness” another legend before Game 2 of the NBA Finals. According to Rolling Stone, legendary guitarist and Bay Area native Carlos Santana will perform the national anthem with his wife Cindy Blackman Santana:

Santana has performed in sporting events in the Bay Area in the past. Just last year, he played the national anthem in Game 4 of the 2014 World Series. The Giants would end up winning 11-4 on their way to their third World Series title in five years.

While the 10-time Grammy award winner is a Bay Area native, his wife Cindy is from Ohio, which makes for an interesting dynamic. Regardless of who they are rooting for, they are two of the most talented musicians Oracle has ever seen. Not only will you get to see a great Game 2, but it’s going to get started with an amazing national anthem.
