Former Detroit Pistons and Boston Celtics forward Luigi Datome, now with Turkish club Fenerbahce, got rejected by the backboard in the most embarrassing way possible Thursday during a game against CSKA Moscow.
Datome drove baseline and was about to throw down what looked like a monster dunk, but instead hit the side of the backboard.
