Stopping play for an injury

[ChiliBob]

It has to be first and foremost the concern for the player. I agree with the other posts in this respect. Stopping the play at any point with an injured player on the court is generally prudent. In practice, if a fast break going the other way is in progress, try to let it go and stop it at the first possible point without disadvantage to the offense. If the player is in a middle of a crowd and there may be further injury of that or another player, stop it NOW.
