Blake Griffin enjoys a laugh like the rest of us.

But the Clippers star forward is taking it to the next level.

On Thursday night at Avalon Hollywood, Griffin hosted and curated his first-ever live Comedy Benefit featuring Griffin on the mic, as well as, comedians Norm Macdonald, John Mulaney, Phoebe Robinson, Whitney Cummings and Jim Jefferies.

"I invited five of my favorite comedians to join me tonight, but they weren't available," joked Griffin. "So we have these comedians instead."

Griffin is currently dealing with a knee injury suffered in late November.

It's also not the first time Blake's been on stage.
