Saw a funny situation tonight in a WNBA game which I was unfortunate enough to see (unfortunate because the Portland Fire played horribly and got creamed). New York had the ball. Fire player reached in and got ahold -- good clean play, no foul. Ref called jump ball. I thought he waited way too long to blow, but oh, well. New York's shot clock was at 8 seconds. Shot clock never re-set. New York got possession after the jump and couldn't get a shot off in the 8 seconds, and got a shot clock violation. New York coach didn't scream, players didn't scream, so I'm assuming this was the correct procedure, but it struck me odd.
Eli or Drake, any comments? Is this correct in other levels that play with a shot clock?

FIBA - Shot clock resets on all jump balls.

According to NBA rules, if a held ball is caused by the defense and the ensuing jump ball is controlled by the team that was on offense, the shot clock remains the same or is set to 14, whichever is greater. Rule 7, Section IV d. (6).

The WNBA rule does differ from the NBA rule. As crew mentioned if shot clock is less than 5 seconds, it is reset to 5, (these are jump balls where there was clearly an offense and defense and not a scamble after a shot where both hit it OOB) if the offense gets it they get the 5 second or more, If defense gets it then it is reset.
In reality not much difference when jump in NCAA and clock is ot reset on AP....
