Defender hits backboard
We're presently in our state AAU tourney. A fellow official asked me about this last night. I gave him my opinion, and told him I'd get it on a forum to get some more input:
As A1 is in the act of shooting, B1 leaps and hits the backboard with both hands/fists. The shot is successful.
The covering official counts the goal, and T's the defender.
Thoughts? My friend said he found no direct Casebook or statement that specifically applies.
Thanks.
