Noah Penda takes the ball off his own face and it still goes back through the hoop. I don't think we've ever seen that happen before.
The reason this doesn't count comes straight from rule 5, section 1: the ball has to enter from above AND pass through the net. It never fully got through the twine here, same reason Ja Morant's dunk got waved off a while back.
Kevin Knox and Jalen Suggs are ready to count it immediately. JB DeRosa correctly says he didn't see it since he was trailing on the play, this one belongs to the slot official. Textbook positioning.
The rulebook gets treated like it's some vague guideline. It's not. It's a puzzle, and every piece fits together exactly like this. #shorts
