We might have known our favorite athletes for a very long time due to their prominence in their chosen sport. However, this time, we will not be talking about their sports accomplishments but their other talents such as dancing.
First things first - these athletes are no stranger when it comes to dancing. Let's see who are the top 10 athletes who have a hidden talent in dancing.
10. Terrell Owens (Football)
Owens is known for dancing after making a successful touchdown. The NFL fans are aware of this guy who turns into a breakdancer from a runner. It goes to show that the farther he throws, the wider he embraces the dance floor.
9. Clyde Drexler (Basketball)
The Big 3-on-3 basketball league commissioner, Clyde Drexler, is not only a high flyer who shut down his opponents during his time. The "Dancing With the Stars" proved how he finished the floor not with a dunk but with a flick, finesse, and body maneuvers.
8. Brian Wilson (Baseball)
Brian Wilson can throw and bat at you, but it is off the diamond that he grows more talented. A dancer and comedian in one body, Wilson will show you how to get things done in his 30-second lip-synched video entitled Dynamite.
7. Peyton Manning (Baseball)
Manning dashes and rushes, then bump. It is a common sight for the quarterback 'manning' the field. But when John Legend and rapper Snoop Dogg came to his rescue, it was a straight tackle for the win to Manning. The quarterback has enjoyed the dance challenge with the two singers.

With Howard's build resembling the body of a full-suit quarterback, you can assume that he's built for another league. Yes and no. Yes, he was built for another show, and no, he was not, because his dancing skills will leave you breathless. He pulled a hilarious Beyonce impersonation.
5. Floyd Mayweather (Boxing)

Yes, if you are thinking of the outcome, he was crowned as the winner of the show's fifth season.
3.Hope Solo (Soccer)
Solo might be a ferocious goalkeeper in soccer but what you see of her is just a small part of what she can do. She also slays on the dance floor in Dancing with the Stars, and her footwork will tell you how soccer helped her become a good dancer.
2. Apolo Anton Ohno (Skating)
It's a given that an Olympic skater can produce such fine talent on the floor. In 2007, Ohno's moment in the Dancing with the Stars saw him finishing in fourth place. Skating and dancing do complement each other.
