I did see the L in an NBA game last night give the preliminary 3-point signal though. I know, I know, the NBA is different.

Officials Manual 3.3.4B. Three-Point Try 5 - "Lead has responsibility to assist Center and Trail in transition."

Hence the reason I said primary coverage. I wasn't talking about transition.
