Was that the correct call?

Was this inbound play following a made basket by B? If so, A2 (and all the other team A players) can be OOB on the baseline.

Abner rolled over. That's how bad the basketball was.

It was not after a made basket by B.

If the player was sick, why wouldn't the officials stop the game at a point when A1 was not attacjing and allow for proper steps to be made? They kept playing through this until B had it in their FC?
