Before last night’s playoff game between the Portland Trail Blazers and Memphis Grizzlies, Wesley Matthews, who has been sidelined since March, electrified the crowd by coming out wearing an Iron Man mask.

Portland Trail Blazer’s shooting guard Wesley Matthews unfortunately tore his Achilles last month. At the time he was leading the NBA in 3-pointers. He is a fan favorite and has earned the nickname “Iron Man” because his impressive consecutive games played streaks: 250 and 142.
When Matthews emerged from the locker room last night and walked out onto the court it was extra special because it was the first time he had been to Moda Center since suffering his season-ending injury.
Check out a gif and a video below featuring Wesley’s superhero entrance.
