If that is the case the only question is where the foul occured before the shot clock horn sounded. In both A + B that seems to be the case. If the foul occured before the horn the shot will count because the clock should stop when the wistle is blown for the foul. It does not matter how long a players legal continuation takes. In theory a player could get fouled with less than a second to shot and then with his continuation and Micheal Jordan hang time take more than that to finish his shot.

What you would do is count the hoop send the player to the line to shot 1 more and reset the clock to the amount of time that was actually left when the foul was called.

I have the same call as you except why would you

...reset the clock to the amount of time that was actually left when the foul was called.


The shot clock resets on all fouls.
