Question 38 part 2 tests

[Oklahoma official]

I think the answer is true, but can not find a reference for it. Can anyone give me a helping hand, I need a reference.

With the given information, I say it's false. 2-3

While a player is attempting the free throws awarded for a T, the other 9 players must be behind the division line, in the offended team's backcourt.


I said false per 8-1-3 which states that when the ball is to become dead after the last free throw for a specific penalty is not successful, players shall not occupy any spaces along the free throw lane. It does not state exactly where they need to stand.

That said - if I am not administering the FT - I am getting guys ready for the throw in - at the division line.

[tomegun]

It should be false.

[tjones1]

Well, I was right for the wrong reason.

It's false...this is a basketball myth - cue BillyMac.

8-1-5 states where the other players must stand -- and it's not behind the division line.

[chartrusepengui]

Yup - didn't read far enough.

8-1-3 does not address Technical fouls. I can not find no reference to technical foul administration.

[grunewar]

Rule 8, Section 1, ART. 5 . . . Any player, other than the free thrower, who does not occupy a
marked lane space must be behind the free-throw line extended and behind the three-point line.

Is there a difference between technical free throws and non-technical free throws? If the ball is to remain dead, no players on the lane. That seems clear.

So what's the rule on where they may stand? Outside the 3-point arc and behind the free throw line extended.

Don't make it harder than it has to be.
