The phrase "dunking or stuffing is legal and is not basket interference" was probably added in 1976 when the NFHS added a rule change allowed dunking during the game but not during pregame warmups, nor during intermissions, and with a later rule change in 1978 outlawing dunking a dead ball. Previous to this dunking was not allowed at all (the “(Lew) Alcindor Rule”).

Hmmm, A2D I guess. I cannot have my mind changed based on someone saying that a phrase "..was probably added.." Show me an old document without it, and I might be swayed.
FYI - it is no longer Dunkin Donuts but rather Dunkin. (guessing you knew that though)
