Michael Phelps Aids In ASU 'Curtain of Distraction'

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- On Thursday night, Michael Phelps was the feature of the legendary ASU "Curtain of Distraction" feat. He made an appearance after the curtains were drawn to distract a free throw shooter during the second half of the Sun Devils' 86-68 rout of the Oregon State Beavers.

Phelps sported a small speedo, along with his gold medals and a swim cap, while standing between two shirtless male students wearing bow ties.

Phelps is training for the 2016 Rio Games and has said he plans to work as an assistant swim coach at ASU upon his retirement after the Olympics.

Phelps may have contributed to Oregon State's Stephen Thompson Jr. missing both of his foul shots with 13:47 left to play.

The moment drew the loudest cheers from the crowd at Wells Fargo Arena.
