Klay Thompson nutmegs DeMar DeRozan in Team USA exhibition game

Exhibition games are supposed to be fun for the fans, with little to no defense being played so players can rack up uncontested highlights.

But sometimes a player will try to play defense, or give a half-attempt at it, which can lead to him being completely embarrassed, as Toronto Raptors guard DeMar DeRozan was when Golden State Warriors nutmegged him on a fastbreak in Team USA's exhibition contest on Thursday night.

For those unaware of what a "nutmeg" is, it's when a ball-handler passes the ball to himself through a defender's legs, which, of course, is embarrassing.

DeRozan was merely at the wrong place at the wrong time, and Thompson, who isn't known for his ball-handling skills, got 'em.
