He's only a first-grader, but a diminutive Boston boy's love for the Celtics has made him a star on national television.

Watch Daylon Dance!

Daylon Trotman, 7, of Milton, Mass., already known for his fancy footwork on the Jumbotron at many Boston Celtics basketball games, got a chance in the kleig lights Wednesday on the syndicated daytime talk show.

Trotman was interviewed briefly by Ellen, who also likes to dance on her Hollywood show, then treated the studio audience to his own brand of infectious dancing, wearing his bright green Kevin Garnett Celtics jersey, of course.

He danced for a couple of minutes and was declared "adorable," by the star, who surprised Daylon and his mom, Dana Clarke, with Celtics season tickets in return for his appearance on the show.
