Video: Spurs rookie Keldon Johnson burned by untucked jersey rule

San Antonio Spurs rookie Keldon Johnson was burned by the untucked jersey rule on Sunday.

Johnson checked into Sunday’s 131-103 loss at Oklahoma City late in the third quarter. He had his jersey untucked when he tried to check in and was called for a delay of game infraction.

What’s wild is that Chris Paul was trying to prevent the referee from making the call. CP3 is the same player who urged a referee to make a call late in a December game against the Timberwolves and brought attention to the rule. Now he’s trying not to have players burned for it?

Sorry, Chris, if you’re going to be a rule stickler, you can’t have it called only when you want it.

Johnson ended up scoring nine points in 13 minutes. This was just his fifth game played, and the nine points were a career-high mark for the rookie.
