Why pregame dunking isn't allowed
Any more questions about why pregame dunking isn't allowed?

Memphis @ UAB is being delayed right now because of this. I'm shocked that a T hasn't been issued.

BTW my crew had to issue a T for a pregame dunk last night.

Did it ever occur to you that the officials were not present?

Peace

Reese Davis just reported the game was delayed by 1/2 hr because of a "Disloged basket".

Equipment damage is only one reason, and down the list at that, that pregame dunking is not allowed. Higher reasons include injury and the chance that dunking exhibitions will turn into taunt-fests.
