#75. Team A scores and before the throw-in in complete by Team B,A-2 is charged with an intentional personal foul near the end line.Team B is not in the bonus. Official awards team B two free throws and rules team B's throw-in is now a designated spot throw-in. Is the official correct?

I say Yes(I'm looking for a second opinion) :). Your comments appreciated.

Do you have any rules-basis for your answer? If you check 7-5-7 (I think), you should know for sure if you're correct.

official is correct; it's a designated spot throw-in (at the spot closest to where the foul happened) because the foul that was committed was not a common foul

Case play 7.5.7 SITUATION D states if foul is intentional (or flagrant) on A near the end line.Two free throws(with the lane cleared).Team B will then have a designated spot throw-in on the end line.

Thanks for pointing me to 7.5.7.

This was a rule change (well the committee said that it was an editorial change :rolleyes: ) last season. Prior to that the team could run the end line.
Now we don't let them.
