CLEVELAND, Ohio -- J.R. Smith has been the butt of jokes all summer for forgetting the Cavaliers had a timeout left in Game 1 of the 2018 NBA Finals. But now the Cavaliers guard is getting in on it.

In a new ad for the upcoming animated movie "Dr. Seuss' The Grinch," Smith is seen having lunch at a cafe where he, of course, immediately takes his shirt off. He then gets a call from the Grinch, voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch, who trolls Smith for the brain freeze.

"Dude, it's last year, let it go," Smith tells him.
