But it’s just really about me and Cyrus teaching those guys our dance steps. Picking up the level of their game to us.”
The anticipated dance off, which has become a tradition every year, between the North and South squads will be held before the All-Star Game tip off at 5 p.m.
Whether or not Devance claims are true, the fans will have to see it for themselves.
