A 12-year-old sports fan from Texas - who's become a star in his own right for his National Anthem-singing skills - was surprised by one of his idols on Tuesday night. Nicholas Connors gave a rousing performance ahead of the Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks NBA playoffs game - with one of his favorite NFL players watching from the sidelines, Houston Texans defensive lineman J.J. Watt. When Nicholas finished, the 26-year-old player ran across the court to congratulate him. And the heartwarming moment was caught on camera. Footage - secured by a spectator and shared on Vine - shows Nicholas looking confused at first when he's caught off-guard and tapped on the shoulder.Nicholas Connors gave a rousing performance ahead of the Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks basketball game on Tuesday nightOne of his favorite NFL players was watching from the sidelines - Houston Texans defensive lineman J.J.
