I had taped the game, so I went and looked at it.
A Kentucky pass (alley oop) hit the rim and bounced towards the centre line. A KU player tried to save it in the front court but stepped on the centre line. His save (weak pass) landed in the back court. Therefore, the official could have called a backcourt violation for either infractions. He did not. A Syracuse player then retrieved the ball and play continued from there. It was impossible to see if the shot clock was reset when it hit the rim. As mentioned here, it should not have reset.
