			The rule is the same. 
 
APPENDIX III / OFFICIATING GUIDELINES BR-181 
 
Section 3. Hanging on the Ring Players should not be permitted to hang on the basket ring in an 
excessive, emphatic manner during dunks when there is no possibility of a 
resulting injury occurring. The intent of the rule does not permit a player 
to hold the ring and lift his or her body or legs, or in general, hang on the 
ring for emphasis. This is especially true for a player who dunks the ball 
on a breakaway or when no defender is nearby. Injuries, sometimes serious, 
can occur as a result of hanging on the ring. Game delays also result when 
damaged equipment must be fixed or replaced. When there is no obvious 
injury circumstance to be avoided by hanging on the ring, doing so is an indirect technical foul and shall be called.
