Follow up Q

Mark sets it all forth pretty clearly. But a follow up Q:

Let's assume this was the end of the fourth quarter, and (until the error is noticed) the score ends up tied. The error is noticed after the break before the OT, as the ref is walking out for the center jump. Is the FT part of the 4th Q (i.e. the game is over if the player makes the basket -- which, of course, would infuriate the other team since they would have gone for a 3 if they knew they were down by 3 rather than 2), or is part of OT (which, of course, would infuriate the team forced to play OT since they center jump with a one point lead making OT seem silly).

(My gut tells me it's the first option, but am curious what the experts think, and am wondering if y'all have flak jackers for either of those scenarios?)
