4.41.2 SITUATION: A1 becomes confused and throws the ball at the wrong basket. A1 is fouled by B1 and the ball goes into the basket. Is this a successful basket? If A1 missed, would A1 be awarded two free throws for the foul by B1? RULING: No goal. The ball became dead when the foul occurred. When a player throws at the opponent's basket, it is not a try. If the team is in the bonus when B1 fouled A1, A1 is given either a one-and-one attempt or two free throws at Team A's basket. If Team A was not in the bonus, then the ball is awarded to Team A for a throw-in at the out-of-bounds spot nearest the foul. (7-5-5)

Seriously, welcome to the forum EastTN. Sorry for the immediate teasing, but I have just grown a bit tired of new people coming on here and making rules statements as if they were facts, when they are actually completely wrong.

I hope that you have learned something already.

Thanks for the welcome! and yes...i have learned something already!
