Vince Carter had a bit of fun with Blake Griffin, as the bottom-dwelling Sacramento Kings took on the Detroit Pistons on Monday night.
The 41-year-old small forward took on the task of guarding the heavier Griffin on the post but was called for a foul as the Pistons star stumbled to turn baseline upon spinning.
Carter then mimicked Griffin's reaction on the floor, garnering the laughs from several people in the arena.

Griffin missed the first free throw with the Kings already over the foul limit, making the second; though Carter showed he still had the moves, aging like fine wine.
Griffin has been known as a complainer throughout his NBA career and Carter had his fun with him during his 17 minutes on the floor, finishing with seven points, two steals, and a block in a 106-90 defeat.
The night would end up as a memorable one for Carter, though, as the former Slam Dunk champion moved up to the 22nd spot on the NBA's all-time scoring list. He surpassed former New York Knicks giant Patrick Ewing on his way to the historical feat.
Carter made the momentous play via a 3-pointer, which is only apt as the erstwhile high-flyer has marvelously transformed his game into becoming one of the best 3-point shooters in NBA history.
Meanwhile, Griffin will continue to find his niche in this slumping Pistons squad that has disappointed plenty of its fans this season, despite adding a bonafide All-Star into their lineup.
But for this game, Carter showed that Griffin still has his Hollywood acting chops with him despite wearing the Motor City colors.
