I had a similar play in a varsity contest two weeks ago.
Player A1 pulls up for a jumper and clearly his leg buckles and he shoots a dart at the rim. It bounces and the defense secures and fast breaks. Player A1 is holding his leg on the court.
I am the new lead and I take off with the fast break. Team B is about to score when I hear a crack of the whistle. Well my new T, cracked his whistle because the player was down on the ground and coach B had clearly influenced my partner enough to get him to crack.
Team A coach is yelling, and in my opinion rightly so, because we just stopped his advantage. I told the T, at the next opportunity, we don't stop play on a fast break with the other team has the advantage.
If they back out or score, then we can stop play. Except if it's a life and death or we see squirting blood.
Turns out the kid just had a cramp and he was up and walking within minutes.
