British Basketball League officials could launch an investigation against Plymouth Raiders after the club’s mascot came onto the court during Saturday’s Trophy tie with Guildford.

Foxy, the Raiders long-standing mascot, was seen to cross the sidelines during a stoppage for a foul – and then pulled down the shorts of Heat star Martell McLemore late in the game with just three points separating the teams.

Such incidents are in contravention of FIBA’s rules.

“Only in the BBL can a mascot pull down a visiting players shorts in the middle of the game, and the refs do nothing,” said Guildford forward Tayo Ogedengbe on his Twitter account.

Plymouth won 87-83 to book their place in the semi-finals.
