Last year, Drake introduced the rosters for the All-Star Game hosted in Toronto.

This season, The Roots one-upped the Grammy award-winning artist with their introductions of the 2017 NBA All-Star game rosters.

Some players responded like you would expect. LeBron James danced as he was introduced for his 13th consecutive All-Star appearance.

Giannis Antetokounmpo made his first appearance starting as an Eastern Conference All-Star. He took a very presidential approach, waving to the crowd. Home team All-Star Anthony Davis followed suit.

And of course, there was Eastern Conference head coach Brad Stevens, who rolled his eyes as pre-game introductions went by.
