I'll tell you how we handled it later.

My 15YO son, whose reffing experience is under 40 games, made this call in a recent game with 1 sec left in the game. Shooting team was down 2, cold blooded 12YO girl swishes first two to send game to OT. They lost by 1 and, after the game, both coaches lauded him for the call because most officials tend to 'Eat Fox' during these situations.
My question is, what if he had assessed an intentional or flagrant. How many FTs?

Thanks

--3 FT's and the ball at the point of foul for an intentional or flagrant personal foul on a 3-point try.
