What's the call?

Team A is leading by two points with .9 sec.to go.Team B throws the ball the length of the court and is caught by a Team B player. Team B player is fouled as he shoots, however the ball has not left the hands as time expires. What's the call?

Blue 23, illegal use of hands

2 free throws.

I'm hoping he doesn't hit em both because then we've got Bonus Basketball.

Lanes cleared, he gets one shot. If he misses game over. If he makes it, he gets the 2nd to tie or go home.

Why clear the lanes for the FT attempt? Aren't the defense required to take the low spots?

No. Anytime the ball becomes dead after the FT(s), no players are allowed along the lane.

Do you have players along the lane during technical, intentional, or flagrant foul FTs?

This is the IU/Purdue scenario. The big ten actually had a press release that said the officials booted it. Even after the R went to the monitor, they still booted it. The R said even though the clock had expired before the release, he gave them "continuation" and counted the basket and gave them 1 shot.
There is something to be said about knowing the rules and then applying them.

Tnx. I was good with the T, flagrant and intentional that the lanes were cleared out. I've never had a foul at the end of the game. Now if the FT's wouldn't make a difference in the outcome, do you just report the foul and not award the tosses and call the game over?

BktBallRef · #9 (**permalink**) Tue Jan 25, 2005, 10:32am

Don't even bother with reporting the foul. Just get!!

Tonyp said the above. Is this correct? Yes the contest is decided but wouldn't the kid still get the Xtra Freethrow anyway?

No, he wouldn't. You don't shoot FTs after time has expired that would not effect the outcome of the game.

Excellent! Thanks. You are right on!

SECTION 6 BEGINNING, END OF QUARTER OR EXTRA PERIOD
