Ball lodged on rim

So, I started thinking about the various scenarios. First of two free throws=shoot the second free throw. Final free throw=alternating possession.

But....since the ball usually lodges on a try attempt, when would a throw-in follow?

Some I came up with:

A1 is shooter, A2 fouls B2.

A1 is shooter, B2 fouls A2 before bonus is in effect.

I had more the other day while working but now at the computer....

i dont understand what your scenarios have to do with the ball being stuck betweeen or on the rim. if A1 shoots and A2 fouls B2 what would you do? whether or not the ball gets stuck anywhere doesnt change anything.

A1 is shooting two free throws for a flagrant/intentional/technical foul. Second shot becomes lodged on the rim. Throw-in for A follows in all situations so the AP arrow is not used.

You don't use the AP arrow when a throw-in pass lodges.
