Jeremy Lin shook what his mama gave him when he got the chance to come onstage at a Jackson Wang concert.

In footage from the wild moment that took place during the wildly popular Hong Kong rapper/singer's show in Macau over the weekend, Lin can be seen putting his hands on his hips, but not dipping. He gyrated his hips slightly for a few seconds.

Lin later explained what was going through his mind when he began dancing in a post that read, "POV: @jacksonwang852g7 tells you to dance in front of almost 20,000 people..........almost shat my pants."

Check out Lin’s butt-bouncing moment below.

Lin’s brief but epic dance experience came a few months after he announced his decision to retire from playing pro basketball.

In August, Lin, who was playing professionally in Taiwan, shared the news on Instagram with a stirring post summing up his feelings.

"As athletes, we are always aware that the possibility of retirement is never far away," he wrote. "I've spent my 15 year career knowing that one day I would have to walk away, and yet actually saying goodbye to basketball today has been the hardest decision I've ever made.

"It's been the honor of a lifetime to compete against the fiercest competitors under the brightest lights and to challenge what the world thought was possible for someone who looks like me,” he added. “I've lived out my wildest childhood dreams to play in front of fans all around the world. I will forever be the kid who felt fully alive everytime I touched a basketball."

Lin previously spent nine seasons in the NBA after going undrafted from Harvard. In 2012, he scored at least 20 points in nine out of ten games while playing for the New York Knicks, sparking an intense period of hype known as “Linsanity.”
