Shooting 1 and 1 on an illegal screen?

[scooter2]

Perhaps this was addressed earlier, but more than one official informed me that at the boys' state tournament the officials called an illegal screen and then proceeded to allow a 1 and 1 free throw opportunity. Can anyone explain why this occurred?

What rule set? Was the foul called on the offense or defense?

Aside from M&M's excellent and heroic question regarding the rule set, the question I have is, "Was the screen set during a throw in?"

Here's one set of circumstances in which it occurs quite often. NF rules. Team A is going to inbound. A1 has the ball OOB. Before he can throw it in to a teammate inbounds, A2 sets an illegal screen on B1. Team B is in the bonus and will shoot 1 and 1. Since there is no team control during a throw-in, it is not a team control foul, hence the shooting of free throws.

My guess is that this was the situation.

Another possibility is that the contact with the screen occurred just after a shooter released a shot. If so, that would be after team control ended and subject to the bonus. (without commenting on the advisablilty of calling an illegal screen after a shot is released).
