This happened in the consolation championship game of a tournament. I was sitting at the table. A1 goes up to shoot and is fouled on the arm by B1. After A1 released the ball (but is still airborne) she grabs B1 and ends up dragging her down to the floor. Official calls a double foul. The calling official reports the double foul to the table and then calls both coaches together to explain. He said that A1 would be shooting two since she was fouled in the act of shooting. After a discussion with his partner he then informed the benches that since we now go POI after double fouls Team A will get the ball on the baseline. Is this correct? Since the player had released the ball when she committed the foul there is no player/team control, right? I'm thinking since no team had control they should have gone to the arrow but I'm not sure.
