Incorrect administration of free throw (inadvertent horn)

[Jay R]

I like to do like Joe Crawford and run to block his attempt before he can release it. 😉

If it works, go for it.

Let’s remember that we as official control what happens on the floor and our whistle not a inadvertent horn play on !!
Haven’t you been in the situation after a made free-throw”last FT”or made baskets and you have your five second count and you have a substitution at the table and table hits horn 🤭
Do you give the player throwing ball in a few more second because of HORN? Or isn’t it PLAY on ?

If I can get through the situation with no advantage or disadvantage to either team, I'll yell. "Play", but if I have any indication that the horn will have an adverse effect on anyone, I'll blow it dead.

In my game, with my table crew, I'm not going to allow my horn to screw up any of my players.
