It's not competitive basketball. It's an entertainment show.

Title:
Legal Play, Offensive Player with the ball gets up off the floor
Commentary:
This is an example of LEGAL play by an offensive player in possession of the ball. When in possession of the ball while on the floor, an offensive player is permitted to stand up, establish a pivot foot and resume play. Here, the offensive player loses the ball and then regains possession after going to the floor. He then regains his feet, establishes his pivot and resumes play. This is a legal play.
