Missed shot

[PP]

Player A1 is six feet from the basket and shoots an air ball. A1 , while the ball is in the air, gets his own rebound ( no one else touched the ball) and scores the basket. The referee allows the basket, were we correct?

What ends when a try for goal is released?

Yes, except if you were wearing referee jerseys with numbers on the back and had 10 millionaires on the court.

The shooter can retrieve his or her own airball, if the official considers it to be a shot attempt. The release ends both player control and team control. It is not a violation for that player to start another dribble at that point.

9.5.1 SITUATION: A1 ends a dribble and then jumps and releases the ball on a try for goal. B1 partially blocks the shot, but A1 secures control again while still in the air. A1 returns to the floor and dribbles to the basket and scores. RULING: Legal maneuver. Both player control and team control ended when A1 released the ball. When A1 recovered he/she could dribble again similar to dribbling after catching a pass or rebound.

PP is from Ontario, Canada, eh? I ask seriously: is FIBA the same on this issue as NFHS? Pantherdreams or ilyazhito, please respond.

Interesting side note. I worked an AAU tournament in Mass. last spring and we had a team from QC. QC has always used FIBA rules, but during a sidebar with the head coach (who was delightfully bilingual, by the way), he mentioned that ON, which has previously used NFHS rules, had recently switched to FIBA. Is that true?

ON uses FIBA rules for high school (OFSAA) games, with some mods related to NFHS (timeout length, 3-point line, a 35-second shot clock).
