Coming fast down the court and jumping up for the dunk, Tatum opted to hang on to the rim for an extra second.

That's a rule that they just implemented that, quite frankly, I don't think makes any sense," Tatum said on Nov. 24. "Anybody that's ever played or dunked the ball, you know your momentum... just trying to make sure you're stable when you land and make sure nobody's underneath you."
