I saw the following occur in the Duke Florida State game on Sunday Feb. 2. One of the Duke players drives to the basket scores the layup and a teammate jumps perhaps looking to tip in the miss. The ball goes in the basket and the followup player slaps backboard with both hands one on either side of the basket simultaneously.
Question 1 Is this legal in NCAA?
Question 2 Has any one seen this happen in HS and would you penalize for intentionally slapping the backboard?

I have issued the T for question 2 and received a lot of flack from players, coaches and bystanders but I still penalize it everytime I see it. What do you do?
