Basketballer 'pantsed' by teammate

A US college basketball player was left red-faced when a teammate accidently pulled down his shorts during a match against a rival school.

Footage captured during the second half of the match between Dayton and Boise State shows Dayton big man Dyshawn Pierre jumping for an offensive rebound.

Unfortunately, his teammate was also contesting the board and somehow got the front of his foot tangled with the top of Pierre's shorts, reefing them down in front of the entire stadium, not to mention the countless hordes watching on television.

However, the situation could have gone from bad to much, much worse for Pierre had it not been for the long-legged tights he was wearing underneath his shorts.

Pierre's embarrassing night was capped off in winning style though with Dayton claiming the victory 56-55.
