Yeah, she can pass (for real), shoot or even hold the ball until the end of the quarter or a five second closely guarded call, whichever comes first.
I had a game last year where a player held the ball in the frontcourt out near the division line with over 4 minutes to go in the half (why - is a long story). The other coach kept yelling at me about how long he could stay out there and do that. I really couldn't answer him until after the quarter was over.
When I told him the rule as the halftime began - that if he wanted to stop the guy he'd have to send a player out of his zone to guard him, his reply was, "That's a horsesh** rule."
I T'd him just for fun partly because he said it loud enough for fans to hear him, and partly because my foot hurt and I was in a cranky mood.
He was a sad camper.
