Something triggered from another thread but figured it may be lost in the shuffle. High school rules.

On a free-throw release, do the players have to wait till the ball hits the rim or backboard? Or is it only the rim?

I haven't seen this happen but good to know... I was under the understanding that the ball HAD to hit the rim or it was a violation on the shooter, i.e. why its not legal for a player to throw the ball off the backboard to themself.

On an extremely rare occassion I guess its possible that the ball could hit the backboard and then rim, would then be a situation which would trigger the allowance of players to enter?

Two questions there haha, thanks in advance
