Not necessarily. Team A might have had a throw-in in the middle of the shot clock or the ball might have been tipped from the frontcourt into the backcourt at any point in the shot clock. The shot clock wouldn't be reset and could easily be below 20.

First of all, the rule book is wrong in regards to kicked balls in the backcourt. Based on smashing a few rules together, if a kick ball occurs in the BC at 20+, there is no reset, but if a kick ball occurs below 20, it is reset to 30.

On Nov. 2nd Art Hyland sent out a rules clarification that reads as follows:

"e. Kicked ball by the defense in Team A’s backcourt – 20 second reset or time remaining on the shot-clock whichever is greater. (Rule 2-11.6.f) "

You meant 20?

No, I meant 30 as I typed. That's how the rule book reads. I even sent it into Art Hyland last month. I wasn't the only one who did so.

The November 2nd clarification is an acknowledgement that the rule book is wrong.

I thought there was something else. There have been a few clarifications after the fact.
