NBA- Magic vs Wizards (Video)

thanks. good case study for nba refs
So they are basically looking at this like an inadvertent whistle. And they are saying because the whistle occurred right after and they think the Magic player is going to get the ball or has it so Magic retain possession. Had Oladipo made the basket, it would not have counted because the whistle occurs before his shot? That would have been a another can of worms!

That bolded is something I've never heard before. Making a ruling because you think a player will get the ball.

that was something I thought I heard in this video. I was wrong. I thought the whistle had blown before he had the ball.

It looks like the Magic player has the ball at the exact same time of the first whistle, hard to tell exactly when. So inadvertent whistle, Magic keep the ball, and had he scored the basket it would not have counted.

There's no think. At the time of the whistle, Orlando had possession of the ball. So they retain possession of the ball. If the whistle comes while the ball is loose, resume with a jump ball.
