throw as part of the fourth quarter, Team B captain requests and is granted a 60-

second time-out. Team A or B captain then requests a 30-second time-out during

the same dead-ball period. RULING: The second request is denied. At the end of

playing time for the fourth quarter or any overtime period, successive time-outs

shall not be granted. This means a time-out cannot be granted either team until

the clock has run in the extra period – assuming the free throw is missed.

Successive time-outs may be granted in all situations except after time has

expired in the fourth quarter or any extra period.



5.11.7 SITUATION B: Following the expiration of time for the first extra period,

the coach of Team B is charged with a technical foul. Team B requests a time-out

before the free throws are administered to start the second extra period. The

time-out request is granted. Thereafter, the official administers the first free throw

to A1. Following the attempt: (a) Team B; or (b) Team A, then requests a time-out.

RULING: The request cannot be granted in either (a) or (b), as it would be consid -

ered a successive time-out. The fact that the ball did become live between the two

requests has no bearing on the ruling. Another time-out request by either team

cannot be honored until after the clock has started in the second extra period.

Make him actually crack a book. I could've cut and pasted too, but I chose not to.
