C Team R and S-2 gets individual penalty
D Team S and remind S-2 the ball must hit the floor
The answer is D: Team S and remind S-2 the ball must hit the floor. The interpretation is the same for all 3 rules codes. Unless the action is deemed to be intentional interference, we will give a verbal warning on the first occurrence of such an action.
