Lightbulb Basically the same.

Okay, so what ARE the lane violation rules in NCAA and NBA?

I know the theory is that it's okay to step in after release, but they don't seem to call it no matter how bald-faced the violation is, and then all of a sudden for no apparent reason, they call it. I'm not criticizing, just confused.
NF and NCAA Rules are almost identical. The NF rules were changed to basically mirror the NCAA rule on FT. The only major difference is what happens on the release of course.

I cannot speak for the NBA at all. But I believe it is basically the same as far as I have witnessed.

I did see a lane violation called in the Big Ten Tournament this weekend. A defensive player stepped in too early and the FT was missed.

Peace
