Throw down, big men: Kaminsky challenges Porzingis to dance-off
Frank Kaminsky must have gotten a load of Kristaps Porzingis' stellar Euroleague grooves on Friday, because the Charlotte Hornets forward just threw down and challenged his fellow rookie to a freakin' dance-off:

As we all know, Knicks rookie sensation Porzingis has a number of dance moves in his arsenal, from the turn and point to the jersey-heartthrob.
Though Kaminsky is no stranger to getting his groove on himself, as demonstrated by this very-Wisconsin Badger version of the Carlton he put on display for March Madness:

Those moves did not go away when Frank the Tank reached the Big Show. Far from it. The NBA was where the Charlotte rookie wowed Shanghai with a bevy of touch-your-body moves and became an award-winning hoofer:
Of course, this is how the rest of the Hornets reacted to Kaminsky's "So You Think You Can Dance" audition, but you know, teammates are always clowning:

So the Kaminsky-Porzingis dance-off seems to be a pretty fair fight.
The next time the Hornets play the Knicks is April 6, which gives Kaminsky and Porzingis plenty of time to hone their on- and off-court moves (and maybe get their respective dance teams involved as well).
And the Interwebs and basketball courts will most definitely explode (or implode) with somewhere around seven-feet of happiness should Porzingis accept this challenge. Social media has already weighed in with full force:

Two rookie big men go toe-to-toe in an epic dance battle. No. 4 draft pick vs. No. 9 draft pick. Only one will survive. Who do you think will win this: Frank the Tank, or the Zingshot?
