So why don't they? Coach doesn't know the rule, or doesn't tell his players, or doesn't give a damn, and gambles that officials at his games don't bother to enforce the rule? Back when I was coaching middle school basketball, when we were passing out the uniforms, I told the players, "If you want to wear an undershirt, it has to be white for home games, or red for road games. No exceptions". Easy peasey, lemon squeezy. No issues for the rest of the season. None. Period. Or maybe it's the officials who work his games figure that enforcing undershirt rules aren't really "part of the game" and don't bother to enforce the rule?
I still can't figure out why an NBA player with a white jersey gets to wear a black undershirt. Doesn't the NBA control almost anything that involves dress, even down to what an injured player can wear for street clothes while sitting on the bench? So, what is the NBA rule regarding undershirts, if, indeed, there is such a rule?
