Here's the rationale for the black, and white, restrictions (sleeves, tights, headbands, wristbands), and for the head coach technical foul for illegal apparel:

It makes the rule easier to understand by officials, coaches & players. We are spending more time discussing what is legal & illegal with uniforms & apparel than we are spending with hand-checking, post-play, etc. It will also put more responsibility on coaches to make sure their players are dressed legally.

It was submitted by someone in Tennessee.
