TORONTO, Oct. 19, 2021 /CNW/ - TSN announced today the expansion of TSN 5G View, the exclusive in-app feature powered by Bell's mobile 5G network, for TSN's coverage of Toronto Raptors home games. Basketball fans across Canada can experience the game like never before by controlling the angle on every play, starting with TSN's coverage of the Raptors' season opener against the Washington Wizards tomorrow (Wednesday, Oct. 20) at 7 p.m. ET on TSN.
