Like it and follow it, don’t get lost if you know the ball
The grizzly bear played against the Pacers today. Morant took two steps after a match. The second step was nailed to the ground and passed the ball. This incoherent action triggered a heated discussion among fans: Isn’t this walking?
Cousin looked up the walking rules of NBA and looked at the ball with the rules. Morant really didn’t walk.
Simply put: NBA stipulates that players can take two steps after closing the ball, stop after two steps, pass (passing), and shoot (shooting)(The yellow and green parts below).
Morant stopped after two steps.
How is “two steps” defined?
In Morant’s ball, after closing the ball, the landing of the left foot is the first step, and the landing of the right foot (then nailed to the ground) is the second step.
Morant took two steps and then stopped, which met the rules, so he did not walk.
