GV game 3 second to go and the score tied at 54. Ball is inbounded by red and immediately stolen by white in offensive zone. Ball is passed to team mate under the basket who scores. Problem is the timer forgot to start the clock! Whistle, conference. What are my options?
Looking for any rule set answers but understand we play under FIBA here. I thing the rules would be similar anywhere in this situation.

If this were a Fed situation, I would acknowledge and accept that a timing mistake had occurred, then give Red the ball for an end line throw-in with 3 seconds still on the clock and the score 56-54 in favor of White.
That's what the rules say to do.
