Nick Cannon & The Game Prep for BET Celeb Basketball Game

What's up, guys? Leslie Robbins here for Young Hollywood inside the BET Experience at LA Live. We are moments away from the celebrity basketball game.

I get it under way. The game is strong.

Tell me what you're bringing to the court.

Oh, I'm just bringing a veteran aspect. Just come down, get a ball for Christmas around, let them have fun, man.

Nick Cannon, it's a strong game out there.

Yeah, they're serious out there. But that's why I was falling back for the first half. Second half, I'm going to do work.

What's the work in tail?

Uh, some origami, some uh tapestry. I'm going to do some sewing, I'm putting together a quilt on the side. It's going to it's going to happen.

Okay. Now, what was your pre-game ritual?

Lots of Sprite. Lots of I drink too much Sprite. For this one today? Stop, always stopping opponents from the gas station. A lot of prayer. A lot of prayer. Just talking to Jesus the whole time, making sure I don't hurt myself.

Well, this crowd is super pumped. They were dancing and singing before. You got to do two dance moves to bring to the game.

Twerking. That's what I'm good at. Uh, it's natural. Actually, you people don't know, I started twerking. 1988, that was me. I was the first one to pop my back.

This is a regular two-step, hold around the waist, maybe a little wiggle, you know what I'm saying? Just something, something chill.

Oh, well now you got to show me a little twerking.

Nah, that's not going to happen. I'll do it with you. Only on the court. Only I see you talking everything. That's not twerking. That was like more some jazzercise aerobic move. You got to pop your back. We'll be right back. Uh we're going to work on a little technical difficulties and then we'll come back and show the process.
