Message: [QUOTE="sun, post: 4392594, member: 11664"] I'm fairly confident saying that you may be in error. First, I couldn't find any rule change at all regarding hanging from the rim after a dunk in the linked rule changes that you provided. Second, when I Googled the question. "can an ncaa player hang on to the rim after a dunk", the results from more than one source indicated that it's legal when it's done to prevent injury. And perhaps also as long as it's not for an excessive length of time which could be interpreted as taunting. "Hanging on the rim after a dunk is [B]not allowed unless a player is grabbing the rim to avoid injuring himself and/or land on another player[/B].Mar 20, 2022" [URL unfurl="true"]https://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa-tournament-officials-call-controversial-technical-on-illinois-player-for-hanging-on-rim-180731663.html#:~:text=Hanging%20on%20the%20rim%20after,or%20land%20on%20another%20player.[/URL] Can you hang on the rim after a dunk?
