Okay, shoulda known that. But, 4-5-4 goes on to say: ".......if .....officials permit a team to go the wrong direction, when discovered all points scored.........count....."

In the OP, no points were scored with teams allowed to go the wrong direction. If visitors tried to score at the wrong basket and home tried to defend that basket, it should take a stoppage of play to correct the situation before home is allowed to score.
