And think about the position of the leg. Its not possible to be on your knees without the feet being in contact with the court.
In the video, I don't see her left foot leave its spot until after she starts her dribble.

I thought the debate here was whether or not you can go to your knees from laying prone on your stomach?

The debate is if you can come to your knees. You do not have a pivot foot while on the floor. You just do not. That should not be a debate.

With strong arms and toned abs?
