The rule states explicitly that a player on the floor may sit up. For those who want to call a travel here: are you saying that if a knee touches the floor while a player is sitting up, you're going to call a travel?
Yes, because I can't think of a legal way for a player to go from lying down to sitting up with a knee hitting the floor.
