Atlanta Hawks forward Kent Bazemore has a way of stealing the show when his teammates are being interviewed after games.

Try not to laugh when you see Bazemore photobomb. He looks into the camera, drops his chin and stares right at you.  It's been coined the Baze Gaze.

FOX Sports captures it here:

And after the Hawks beat the Detroit Pistons Saturday night, Bazemore managed to slip in the Baze Gaze while he was interviewed. Teammates Al Horford and Dennis Schroder made cameos.

Sure the Baze Gaze may be a little weird, but it's also highly entertaining and fans seem to love it.
