Justin Timberlake may be one of the biggest musical acts on the planet, but he has never been afraid to branch off from his main gig to try something new, like acting, fashion design, and most recently, stepping behind the camera to help film a Memphis Grizzlies game.

The Memphis minority owner was at the team's game against the Miami Heat on Sunday night, when he tried his hand in the new role.

The Grizzlies were not distracted by Timberlake's courtside antics though, as they managed to extend the Heat's losing streak to four with a 103-87 win.

Tom Brady says to blame TV for showing his profane outbursts
