Basket Interference
Saw this in a BV game the other night. A1 goes to dunk and the ball hits off the back of the rim and shoots up in the air about 4 feet. A1 grabs the rim to avoid B1 who is under basket (safety) for a second or two. A1 returns to floor and then ball goes through the basket. C calls basket interference and waves off basket. Officials get together and report to coaches that basket does not count because A1 grabbed the rim. I looked in rule and case book and still wondering if it was the right call. Any thoughts?

Only if he pulls the rim down and the ball enters it before it returns to it's normal position.

How about if A1 didnt pull the rim down & the ball fell through as he was still hanging for protection?

And only if the ball contacts the ring in this case.

That would constitute offensive BI. No technical foul, but still a violation.

Keeping Busy ...


A player cannot touch the ball, ring, or net while the ball is on the ring or within the basket. A player cannot touch the ball if it is in the imaginary cylinder above the ring. These are examples of basket interference. It is legal to touch the ring or the net if the ball is above the ring and not touching the ring, even if the ball is in the imaginary cylinder above the ring. It is legal to hang on the ring if a player is avoiding an injury to himself or herself or another player.

Are you saying Nevadaref is wrong when he stated it would be BI if the player was "hanging on the rim", to avoid injury, and the ball goes through the basket?

Billy's just copying and pasting when he sees trigger words. Maybe he should update his list to point out it can still be BI even if it can't be a T.

BI.

That's not what happened in the OP, which is what I was addressing.

Not much longer, and his list will be as long as the IAABO book. That's my goal.

It would be basket interference, but not a technical.

Next time I post the list, I'll use a smaller font.
