He moves/waddles to the sideline as the ball is coming back up the court. His partner, obviously on his toes, hits the whistle and points at the clock, creating a diversion from what actually occurred.

He walks to the score table, gives a quick explanation, and then he and the other official walk to the "squatter" who now is trying to get upright. After a brief time, he regains his "senses", and play continues on.

First time I had ever seen the tosser get kicked in the privates on the tip. I bet he changes his mechanics for future tosses !
I nominate the above post "The funniest post of the day"!!

BTW CHSLadyEagle seconds the nomination, as she's sitting right here next to me.
