Jeff Teague after being left at arena: 'They'll never forget me again'
Jeff Teague is letting go of being left behind.
The Atlanta Hawks guard was accidentally left at the Palace at Auburn Hills - pizza in hand - after a Sunday night victory over the Detroit Pistons.
I have so many abandoned Jeff Teague questions. Why was he left behind? Why is he carrying a Little Caesars box??? pic.twitter.com/WFd1WcAslM

He even joked about it in a now-deleted Instagram post:
Teague gave the Atlanta Journal-Constitution the simple explanation as to how a key part of the squad could be left at the arena - a phone call with his sister.
"I was out there talking to her too long," Teague explained.
Fear not, the bus came back to get him.
"They'll never forget me again,” he said. "Hopefully, I'll get a better pizza."
Better pizza? Little Caesars may disagree:
Now THIS is how one properly holds a #LittleCaesars Pizza 😝🍕🍕🏀 @Teague0 @IAmMartinsek @SBNationNBA @its_whitney pic.twitter.com/VDpDhP4MaS
