Mascot’s antics nearly cost D-League team a victory
The Austin Toros of the NBA Development League put up with some unneeded Bull-loney when their now-suspended mascot lost his head — figuratively and literally — and nearly cost the team its game against the Colorado 14ers on Wednesday.
This is one of the most talked about mascot stories in a while. The worst news for all the other mascots out there is it will be mentioned by every team and league official as a reason they can’t go near the court during play….obviously making it harder for mascots who are aware of what’s going on to do their jobs effectively.
