Learning Something Everyday - December 2006

Fact: Basketball Slam Dunk

December 2nd 2006 09:49

In college basketball, the NCAA banned the slam dunk shot at the start of the 1967-68 season to reduce the dominance of UCLA's 7-foot 2-inch Lew Alcindor (now known as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar). For this reason the ban is often referred to as the "Lew Alcindor Rule." The slam dunk shot was not reinstated in college basketball until the 1976-77 season.
