The man himself, Stone Cold, responded on Twitter.

Stone Cold Steve Austin is one of the best WWE wrestlers of all-time. He is best known for feuding with Vince McMahon and doing just crazy stuff to McMahon over the course of a several year feud.
For fans of both the WWE and the NBA, it is very cool to see the Blazers guard come in dressed as one of the best wrestlers whoever stepped foot in the ring.
The whole Blazers team before the game arrived in costumes and the rookies also had a specific costume to wear that the veterans picked out for them.
Lillard for sure got the whole thing down with Stone Cold. The head bob, the walk, the Austin 3:16 shirt and the title belt.
The Blazers team as a whole, went all out and were prepared and wanted to have the best costume in the team.
However, it was not fun for them during the game, as they lost to the Washington Wizards 125-124 in overtime.
Lillard finished with 29 points, eight rebounds and five turnovers. He shot 33.3 percent from the field and 20 percent from three point range.
The Blazers as a team have now dropped to 2-1 on the season. With Lillard and CJ McCollum struggling to shoot from the field against the Wizards, the team better hope it is for only that one game and it does not become consistent.
If it does become a consistent thing and they pile up losses, then it could become a spooky season for them.
