Team White vs Team Blue.
Right at the buzzer to end the third quarter, Team White player gets fouled in the act of shooting (didn't make the basket), goes to the free throw line, and hits both free throws. I have one question: Possession was with Team White before the free throws. Should possession be given to Team White to start the fourth quarter, even though one of Team White's players hit his free throws? Also, where is possession given OOB at the start of the fourth quarter? |

Think of it another way - team White just hit buzzer beater jump shot and didn't get fouled, buzzer went off with ball in the air. Does this influence the arrow?
In your case, white's buzzer beater was prevented from success by the foul, but shooting the FTs is just completing the last play of the last quarter. The last play has no impact on the arrow for the next quarter. |

Another way to look at it, as well. You clear the FT lane for the free throws because nothing can happen after them. The free throws end the quarter.

You always start a quarter with who had the arrow after the end of a quarter (unless you have overtime of course). Or if you have a Technical to start a quarter, the arrow stays the same. You give possession to the "violated" team then. But nothing having to do with a FT or any other "non-Technical" situation affects the arrow.
