I was at the under 21 tournament of Americas in Halifax last week and it happened on three occasions. The first time I was surprised that there was no whistle but then a friend of mine who officiates FIBA told me the rule.
I was wondering if that was the case but I thought I saw them call it earlier in the game. It must have touched a support then.
