Raptors' Lowry, Thomas perform in National Ballet of Canada's 'The Nutcracker'
Last year during the holiday season it was Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner of the Toronto Maple Leafs who performed as Cannon Dolls in the National Ballet of Canada’s ‘The Nutcracker.’
This year, however, two members from the Toronto Raptors, Kyle Lowry and Matt Thomas, were able to take their talents to the theatre.

Showing up to Scotiabank Arena in these costumes would certainly be quite the fit.
Not only did both players own the look, but judging by these photos, it also seems they owned the stage.

While it appears as though Lowry and Thomas had a blast participating in the Christmas ballet, they were both exhausted after their performances.

With the way things have been going for Toronto, the good news for Raptors fans is that both players finished the ballet without suffering any injuries.
Earlier on Thursday, it was announced that Pascal Siakam, Norman Powell and Marc Gasol will all be out indefinitely due to injuries.
