Sixers, Heat Anthem Singer Kneels, Wears ‘Black Lives Matter’ Shirt While Singing
October 21, 2016
The singer was identified by the Heat as Denasia Lawrence. It was unclear if she remained in the arena after the performance, and messages left for her were not immediately returned.
Heat players and coaches stood side-by-side for the anthem, all with
their arms linked as has been their custom during the preseason. Many
had their heads down as Lawrence sang, and the team released a statement
saying it had no advance knowledge that she planned to kneel.
