Even if the other team manages to catch up, the clock continues to run. I was also told if, in the miraculous situation the other team comes back and we go to overtime, there would be a running clock in the OT as well.
Time-out, injury, DQ's, techincal fouls, and officials timeout stop the clock. Also, you are correct, if OT happens, running clock in OT.
