Toronto's crop of rookies were in for a surprise when their open practice turned into an impromptu dance-off.
The baby dinos were asked by old heads Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan to dance before a throng of cheering fans. Some rose to the challenge by busting out some slick moves (most notably Norman Powell, Fred VanVleet, and Pascal Siakam) while others (Jakob Poeltl) mostly looked flat-footed.
Here's how their performance looked from the stands at Air Canada Centre.
