Almost dunk

[just another ref]

Saw a replay just now. A guy from Memphis, I think, dunked the ball, ball hit the dunker's own head and bounced out.

No basket.

Interesting play from a year ago, YouTube - 12 Arizona vs. 5 Utah Highlights, Arizona-Utah game, check it out at about the 1:30 mark. Nobody knew what to do. Awkward moment for officials who looked lost.

Very simple--offensive BI. Blow whistle and award possession to the opposing team at an OOB spot on the end line.

Had not thought about that, I agree, it meets the def of BI.

So you get a ball in the face, no basket, AND lose possession?? That sucks

Don't forget the worst part:
No one to blame.

could I get your though prosses on this? Does it matter if his head is still in the net or not when it contacts the ball. what exactly has to happen for you to call this BI or not? thanks Nevada.

As described, the ball was in contact with player while the ball was in the basket. That's BI.

Yep, on the other hand; if the ball had gone all the way through the net before contacting the player, it would be nothing even if it bounced back up through the rim. In that case, the basket would count and the game would continue as normal.

So what was the result of this one? Looks like the officials gave the ball to white even though they ended up with the ball and traveled. Hmm... Less than 30 seconds in a blow out, I can see how this would catch a crew by surprise.

My guess would be a very delayed basket interference call.

No basket.

Ball never hits the player. The ball gets stuck in the net and the ball comes back out when the rim retracts back. Just like the announcers says "Play on"
