Blake Griffin made his highly anticipated debut with the Detroit
Pistons on Thursday night, and while the night will certainly be
a memorable one for him, he did momentarily forget something kind
of important — his jersey.

As the teams were preparing to start the second half, Griffin
pulled off his warmup top only to discover that he was only
wearing his Nike undershirt. Griffin had forgotten to put his
jersey back on.

Griffin quickly dispatched an equipment manager to retrieve the
jersey in the locker room, but it was too late to start the
second half. Griffin was left standing jerseyless and with an
embarrassed look on his face as he had to start the second half
on the bench.

Yes, Blake, that is not great.

Griffin did eventually get his jersey back and he went back into
the game, still carrying a sheepish look.

Griffin did lead the Pistons with 24 points in their 104-102 win
over the Memphis Grizzlies. He also added 10 rebounds and 5
assists.
