Camp game (Blue v. White)
Bonus not in effect until 10th foul. White up 3 points with about 20 seconds left after making free throws. White only has 4 team fouls. White commits 3 or 4 fouls that gets the clock down to around 7 seconds and the ensuing throw-in is still in backcourt near division line. B1 receives throw-in at midcourt and takes a dribble or 2 into frontcourt. W1 attempts to foul B1. Official does not blow whistle. B1, in reaction to the contact, throws up a shot from 40ft and basket goes in. Ball goes through hoops with about 3 seconds left on clock and then clock runs out. Confusion ensues. White coach is up in arms that foul wasn't called. Officials huddle, confirm no whistle was blown for foul, but that someone for White called a time-out after basket was made. (I'm watching from sidelines so I don't know actual conversation). 2.8 seconds is put back on the clock. White has throw-in from endline. White attempts throw-in to W2 at division line. Ball goes through his legs. B2 standing behind W2 picks up ball and throws up a prayer from midcourt....nothing but net as time expires.
