A. After FT, officials notice that players are shooting at wrong basket. Change direction and move on.
B. Before any FT, notice at wrong basket, do you shoot FT?
C. After first FT, notice at wrong basket, what do you do?

A. Correctable error. Cancel the FT's. Get 'em going the right way, and then A either gets a 1/1 or 2 shot bonus, or if team A isn't in the bonus yet, a throw-in at the spot closest to the foul.
B. See A.
C. See A.
If A is shooting at the wrong basket, the ball is dead immediately when the whistle is blown for the foul. No basket if it goes in. A would only get FT's if team A was in the bonus; otherwise team A gets a throw-in at the spot closest to where the foul occurred. See NFHS case book play 4.41.2. Note that if A was fouled
after the ball went through, you would count the basket, but the foul on A would be ignored unless the contact was ruled intentional or flagrant, as per NFHS rule 4-19-1NOTE.
