Hi Everyone-

I know it was a POE this year regarding a defender jabbing towards the shooter's stomach. I'm wondering if you give the defender a warning for that, and then T him up the next time, or do you immediately give him a technical in the first instance of it? I saw one of my students do this in a game but I don't think the officials saw it. Can you tell me what the procedure would be?

Also, regarding the 10 second count -
Team B scores, Team A has the ball OOB going the other way. A1 inbounds to A2 who is in the backcourt. A2, attempting a pass to A3 (also in the backcourt), has his pass deflected by a defender and the ball goes OOB. At this point, 5 seconds have passed. So now Team A has the throw in - that means they only have 5 seconds to get the ball into the frontcourt, correct?

Thanks,
Joe

The 10 second count starts over.
