My assumption too, was that the shot attempt was released. With that said, the shot clock would be reset no matter what. Double foul is POI, therefore goes to the AP.

So part of B is correct, that Team A has a throw-in. Part of answer C is correct, that 2 points would be awarded if try was successful. But the second part of answer C is wrong, Team B has a non-designated spot end line throw-in. If A1 released the try or not, with the double foul, Team A would be getting a throw-in with either situation.

Got to love online test/quiz questions....

You are incorrect. Consult the NFHS Case Book 4.19.8 Sit E.

4.19.8 SITUATION E: A1 has control of the ball in Team A's frontcourt. Post players A5 and B5 are pushing each other in an attempt to gain a more advantageous position on the block while (a) A1 is dribbling the ball; (b) the ball is in the air on a pass from A1 to A2; or (c) the ball is in the air on an unsuccessful try for goal by A1. An official rules a double personal foul on A5 and B5. RULING: In (a) and (b), Team A had control of the ball when the double foul occurred, and thus play will be resumed at the point of interruption. Team A will have a designated spot throw-in nearest the location where the ball was located when the double foul occurred. In (c), no team has control while a try for goal is in flight, and since the try was unsuccessful, there is no obvious point of interruption. Play will be resumed with an alternating possession throw-in nearest the location where the ball was located when the double foul occurred. Had the try been successful, the point of interruption would have been a throw-in for Team B from anywhere along the end line. (4-36; 7-5-3b)
