I was watching a game Monday night and the following situation came up:
Team A throw in under basket, team A in bonus, team B is not. Ball becomes live at disposal...double foul called before throw in ends.
Refs huddle, report both fouls to scorer and then award bonus free throw(s) to team A. My eyebrow raises.
I looked in case book and found 4.19.7 which is what I though should of been applied. Pretty much word for word, except doesn't say anything about bonus situations.
Ruling: "play resumes with alternating-possession throw-in."
I can't find anything that supersedes that ruling by stating that since team A was in bonus they are awarded the free throws. What if team B was in the bonus? Am I overlooking something?
Thanks.
