thrower or placed on the floor and the count shall begin. Either or both teams may
be charged with a violation. Following a violation by one or both teams, if the
offending team(s) continues to delay, a technical foul shall be ruled.

4-38: The resumption-of-play procedure is used to prevent delay in putting the ball in
play when a throw-in team does not make a thrower available or following a timeout
or intermission (unless either team is not on the court to start the second
half) as in 7-5-1 and 8-1-2. The procedure results in a violation instead of a
technical foul for initial delay in specific situations.

10.1.5 SITUATION A: A1 is fouled by B1 during an unsuccessful try and is
awarded two free throws. Team B requests and is granted a charged 60-second
time-out. Team B disregards the 15-second warning signal and the signal ending
the time-out and is still huddling with their coach at the end of the charged timeout.
RULING: The official shall administer the first free throw using the resumption-
of-play procedure and a violation occurs if it is missed. If two B players are
not in the required position when the official is ready to put the ball in play for the
substitute throw, a delay of game technical foul will be assessed. If the first
attempt is good, the same procedure is used for the second. (9-1-2; 10-1-5b)

Also, if the delay was not after a timeout or an intermission:

10-1-5: A team shall not:Allow the game to develop into an actionless contest, this includes
the following and similar acts:
b. Delay the game by preventing the ball from being made promptly live or
from being put in play. See 7-5-1 and 8-1-2 for the resumption-of-play
procedure to use after a time-out or the intermission between quarters. The
procedure is used prior to charging a technical foul in these specific
situations. PENALTY: (Section 1) Two free throws plus ball for division-line throw-in.
(Arts. 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10) Penalized when they occur.

8.1.1 SITUATION B: B1 fouls A1 during an unsuccessful try for goal. The calling
official has properly reported the foul and is in position for the free throws.
The administering official has given all instructions and signals. Team B is properly
occupying the required spaces, but three teammates of A1 are huddling
inside the lane. RULING: Team A is warned for delay, the scorer records it and it
is reported to the head coach. If Team A commits any delay thereafter in the
game, a team technical foul shall be charged. COMMENT: Since this situation is
not a throw-in or following a time-out or intermission, the resumption-of-play
procedure shall not be used. If the free thrower is not in the semicircle when the
administering official is ready, a technical foul is charged to the free thrower. If
the free thrower is in the semicircle, but does not accept the ball, it shall be placed
on the floor and the count started. (10-1-5d; 10-3-5c)

10.1.5 SITUATION B: The calling official has reported the foul and is ready to
administer the free throw. Free thrower A1 is: (a) huddling with teammates by the
team bench area; or (b) is in the semicircle, but teammates are huddling in the
lane area. RULING: A technical foul for delay by A1 in (a). In (b), Team A is
warned for delay. In (b), if Team A had been warned previously for any delay-of game
situation, a team technical foul would be charged. (10-1-5d; 10-3-5c)

10.1.5 SITUATION C: The calling official has reported the foul and proceeds to
his/her proper position for the first of two free throws awarded to A1. B1 and B2
are: (a) huddling in the lane; or (b) two B players are not occupying the first two
marked spaces next to the end line as required. RULING: In (a), if the huddle
delays the officials’ administration, Team B is warned. The warning is recorded by
the scorer and reported to the head coach. If Team B had been previously warned
for delay, a technical foul shall be charged. In (b), Team B will be directed to occupy
the required spaces. If there is delay, a team technical foul shall be charged to
Team B. (4-47)
