Yes, they only call it when somebody pulls up. Players are allowed to hang when somebody is under them to not get injured falling down.
Still a bad rule, players get excited, let them live.

Talking about arbitrary stats…
Game on the line, I want u\hunterwolves18 to take the last shot.
I think it’s reasonable for a player - in some instances - to pull themselves up to stop their momentum. Maybe that’s what Porzingis did and the refs called it falsely. But 99% of the time the refs are calling unnecessary pull-ups when the player is not in danger and just excited. I hate those calls as well, but that’s how it’s been officiated since the start of this season.
