Nevadaref, and my varsity guys, are probably correct, but in the video above Steph Curry's punched ball does not appear to be a reckless act that could create a safety hazard, yet the violation was called on one of the biggest basketball stages, with the best players, and the best officials, in the world.

Of course that's the NBA, not the NFHS.
