technical vs personal foul

There are several things to consider in this situation...

Is the ball live or dead. The ball becomes dead when it goes through the hoop in this situation.

This decision must be made before you can continue.

If ball is live, the second decision is whether or not the foul was intentional or not.

If not, count basket and one FT. If yes, count basket and two FTs Ball is inbounded by team that was fouled nearest spot of foul.

The third decision is whether or not it is flagrant or not. If no, nothing else, if yes, then you have an ejection and paperwork etc.

If ball is dead, the second decision is whether or not contact should be ignored or not.

In this case I think it can not be ignored. No you have a technical foul. Now you must determine if flagrant or not.

Count basket, two FTs and the ball on division line opposite table.

So many decisions. I recommend that before you report any of this, you send both teams to bench area and have a conference with your partner(s) and make sure you are both on same page and you go through the entire sequence of what is going to happen.
