During the second half of Tuesday's showdown between No. 2 Kentucky and No. 5 Duke, Kentucky's 6-foot-8 senior forward Alex Poythress threw down an alley-oop from Jamal Murray and nearly lost a tooth (or two) on the way down when his open mouth grazed/grabbed the net.

Check out the full play (followed by a photo showing what could have been the start of a series of painful dental procedures):

Whew. Poythress definitely felt that and needed a quick grill check after landing.
