Does this NIT timer know the rule?

Isn't precision timing used at this level, so wouldn't it be the officials responsibility to stop the clock, not the timers?

No. If I understand it correctly, the precision time is triggered only by a whistle. As a backup, the clock is also stopped by the timer anytime they hear a whistle. The stoppages on a made basket and the restart on the ensuing throwin are solely the job of the timer.

The officials start the clock only after administered throwins with the timer backing up the official.

I could be wrong, but this is how I understand it.

But then the timer should've noticed the officials missed it and stoped the clock from where he was.
