Default rear tire locked up

This morning I put the 2016 LT Suburban w. 45K miles, in reverse It acted like the rear tire was locked up. It was a weird sensation. But on the wet driveway it skidded on and off and the drive train KLUNKed.
After going back and forth a bit it quit the activity and I sent my wife on her way with it. I was thinking it was a brake caliper that was hung up or something. We just got in last night from a 5 hour drive. No problems or indications of anything unusual. Any Ideas.

Welcome to the forum,
its entirely possible the rear locker just got hung up, and going in reverse and a straight line forward likely got it back on track.
I've had mine lock up with the right combination of turning and going over a speed bump at the same time, driving forward and or reverse in a straight line has resolved it.
