3. Pass off someone head or shoulder and clearly not a try and buzzer goes off while ball in the air and then basket made would you count the basket? I thought it was no on this.
4. If a pass goes into the hoop but the buzzer goes off while it is in the air would it still count?

1. Any thrown ball from behind the 3-pt arc counts as three points if it enters the basket. This rule was changed so that an official didn't have to make a determination between a pass and a try from outside the arc. If it could be either, then it is worth three points.
2. If it falls well below the level of the ring and strikes another player or the floor, then it would only be worth two.
3. Only a try counts if it enters the basket following the expiration of time, so any action with is not a try, such as a pass or a crazy loose ball situation, would not count unless it passes through the goal before time is up.
4. Same as #3.
