Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard has become no stranger to the limelight in the last few months. And on Thursday night, the nation was given another chance to see Lillard on the screen with his appearance on TBS’ “Conan” show hosted by late night host Conan O’Brien.
Here’s Lillard’s entrance via @cjzero on twitter.

Lillard also did a #4BarFridayRap on the Conan show.
In addition to his entrance, the Blazers also produced a time lapse video of Lillard’s visit to the Conan studios.

In addition to his rapping and his dancing, Lillard also talked about a little basketball. I’ll bet you didn’t know why Lillard rarely celebrates on big shots, which he spills to Conan during his interview.
