There is nothing wrong with taking a second or two to make sure that a kid is actually hurt. And unless players are all around him and he could get further hurt, I do not see the need to immediately kill the play. Now if you judge that the fast break is over and the kid is still on the floor or not coming up the floor very well, then stop play. This is just a situation where experience and judgment collide. I have not read anything that suggested you got it wrong or that you did not do what you are supposed to do.

BTW, if you work long enough, this will likely happen again or something worse will take place in relation to a player getting hurt. I had a player dislocate his ankle several years ago (one of the most gruesome basketball injuries I have ever seen BTW) and it took a long time for the player to be removed. The player was all alone on a fast break and stepped wrong and injured himself. In that case we stopped play immediately and no one said a word about it.

Peace
