I had 2 separate situations occur recently and would appreciate help. Both situations occurred in Free Throw Administration.
Situation 1: A1 is at the F/T line for the last F/T. He "throws" the ball but it richocets off the backboard and returns to him. I called a delay of game violation and awarded the ball to Team B.
Situation 2: Same as in Situation 1 except the ball "skips" off the front of the ring.
A1 questions my cal in situation 1. I explain the ball didn't hit the ring and therefore a delay. But I question my call in Situation 2.
Where in the rule or case book am I covered. I do know that Rule 9.1.4 speaks of the free thrower faking a try, but am unable to find anything else.
Thank you for your answers.
