5.2.5 SITUATION C: With three-tenths of a second or less left in a tied game,
each team is in the bonus. Team A has a throw-in on the end line near their basket.
A1 throws the ball to A5 on the near block who catches the ball and quickly
shoots. A5 is fouled by B3 just prior to the end-of-period signal. The ball goes
through A's basket. RULING: Since A5 may not control the ball and attempt a try
with three-tenths of a second or less, A5 cannot score a goal and is not considered
in the act of shooting. However, B3's foul cannot be ignored and is considered
a common foul. A5 is awarded a one-and-one bonus free-throw situation
with the lane cleared. A5's free throw attempts will determine if the game is over
or if an overtime period is necessary. (4-41-6)
