Regardless of rule set we are supposed to be aware of potentially hazardous situations at all levels.
I happen to know the official in the video. He was out for nearly 6 weeks. He is an NCAA tournament official and it was too bad that it happened. Sticky mats, wet towels, etc are all things that we have seen at our games. Just because we view them as a normal part of the game does not mean they are not hazardous.
It can affect officials and players alike.
The message is take a closer look at the surroundings of the court and do your best to minimize the likelihood of the potential hazard.
