Why are you waving off the shot if the play happens like you describe it?

You count the basket plus one.

Why go back and wait to see this play to completion then make the decision that the basket does not count. Either, there was a foul or not.

In this situation, I would not wave off the basket. IMO, this opens up a very interesting conversation.

Coach: Count the basket

Official: Foul happened before the shot.

Coach: Whistle was during my player completing continous motion to score the basket. It should count!!!!!!!

Official: I want to see the entire play and I decided that the foul happened before the shot so, I will not count the basket.


Interesting?????
