The Cleveland Cavaliers threw it back to the 80s with a hilarious introduction video for their match against the Miami Heat on Saturday (NZ time).

Fans at Quicken Loans Arena would have been expecting a normal video introducing the players to the crowd.

However, the video unveiled something a little different.

With the Cavs players wearing wigs and 80s outfits, they break out in a lip-synced and rehearsed version of Rick Astley's 'never gonna give you up'

At the end, they told fans they had been Cavs Roll'd.

The video was a part of the Cavaliers 80s theme night with the team wearing their throwback Orange uniforms during the game.

It's not the first time the Cavaliers have danced to the 1987 classic this year. A few Cavaliers players started dancing to the song during the season opening game against the New York Knicks.

The defending NBA Champions continued their impressive form this season, destroying the Miami Heat 114-84.
