Question Double Technical Foul - How many free throws?

Situation:

Player A (Team A) drives to the basket and is fouled before the shot(reach in foul), by Player B (Team B). The ref blows the whistle.

Player B responds with " that fuc*in bullsh*t" and gets a T.
in response to the T, player B adds more profanity and gets a second T. Player B is thus ejected from the game.

Player A goes to the line. How many free throws should he have? Does Team A retain possession?

Does the amount of free throws change if its a shooting foul and not a reach in?

No such thing as a reach-in foul to start.

Since not a shooting foul.

Player from Team A shoots 2 FT's for first T.
Same or another player shoots the 2 FT's for the second T.

A's ball at the division line.

If the foul was a shooting foul, or in the bonus, those shots are shot before the Technical FT's are shot.

Again, no such thing as reach-in foul.

"Before the shot". Before the bonus, no free throws. If in the bonus, one and one for the player who was fouled, no rebounders along lane. If in the double bonus, two shots for the player who was fouled, no rebounders along lane. Possession at the division line (penalty for technical foul) in all three cases.

"Shooting foul". Two shots for the player who was fouled, no rebounders along lane. Possession at the division line (penalty for technical foul).

Four free throws for the technical fouls can be shot by anybody, even four different players, or substitutes.

Reaching in is not a foul. Maybe you mean illegal use of hands?

While we know what you are saying when you say a "reaching" foul, know that it isn't a foul to reach. A defender could never steal the ball on the ball handler if he didn't reach for it.

As far as the play goes, assuming your playing under NFHS rules, then it would be four free throws for Team A, and a throw-in at the division line. If there's a foul in the act of shooting, then the free throws for the foul are shot first. Then the four free throws for the technical fouls, followed by a throw-in at the division line.

Slightly different situation, but I applied the rule properly yesterday when the "double T" happened in my game. Sad ending to a pretty good game.

Oh well. He had it coming. Thy protesteth too much!

okay so to sum up the replies correctly:

if Team B is not in the penalty then Team A gets 4 free throws and the ball.

if Team B IS in in the penalty then Team A gets a 1 and 1 and then 4 free throws and the ball?

I ask all of this, because this happened to me 2 nights ago. And the player on my team shot 6 straight free throws and we got the ball.

Was just checking to see if the ref who left this happen was huffing paint or if it was all legit.


p.s. i said reach in, because he reached in for the ball and hit him on the hand, but player A WAS NOT in the act of shooting. so yes non-shooting foul.

If the defender reached in and hit the dribbler's hand while that hand was on the ball, by rule that isn't a foul.

so the moral of this story is: if your team is up by 8 with under 35 seconds to go, do not commit a foul followed by a double t; as 6 made free throws and the ball can cause your lead to disappear pretty quickly.

Reaching in is not a foul. There must be illegal contact to have a foul. The mere act of reaching in, by itself, is nothing. If illegal contact does occur, it’s probably a holding foul, an illegal use of hands foul, or a hand check foul.

Jurassic Referee: Good catch.

It is legal use of hands to accidentally hit the hand of the opponent when it is in contact with the ball. This includes holding, dribbling, passing, or even during a shot attempt. Striking a ball handler or a shooter on that player's hand that is incidental to an attempt to play the ball is not a foul, no matter how loud it sounds or how much it hurts.

Almost, but not quite there yet.

Team A does not get the one and one, the player on Team A who was fouled gets the one and one. Team A will get the four technical foul free throws, either players, or substitutes, maybe four different shooters.

Yep, but my guess is it would have still been followed by more shenanigans and thus the 2nd T would have (possibly) resulted in an indirect on the coach.

Assuming we've notified the coach that the player is disqualified.
