LeBron James does pull up on the rim to remove the ball

During the early minutes of the Lakers vs Trail Blazers game, the basketball seemed to get stuck at the top of the backboard following a three-point attempt by Danny Green. With the ball far away from his reach, James decided to take matters into his own hands and he jumped onto the rim. He started to do pull-ups so that the ball can be brought down.

He was unsuccessful in that attempt. Finally, he used a mop handle to poke it free. He did so in one attempt, earning applause from the crowd.
