Blood on player

[Loudwhistle2]

5-8-2-Note: When a player is injured, the official may suspend play after the ball is dead or is in control of the injured player’s team or when the opponents complete a play. A play is completed when a team loses control (including throwing for goal) or withholds the ball from play by ceasing to attempt to score or advance the ball to a scoring position. When necessary to protect an injured player, the official may immediately suspend play.

So in the situation above when you blow it dead on an attempt, if the shot is missed it is an AP situation or if it goes in, basket counts and opposition gets ball out of bounds with option to run end line, right?

Correct. Resume play at point of interruption.

I wouldn't kill it during the try.

We're supposed to kill it during the try, but I prefer to wait for the ball to go in, or for a defensive rebound, before kill the play.

I'm not killing the fast break unless the injury is severe and the player needs immediate attention.

Billy is correct about stopping play once the ball is released. There is no TC once the ball is released and if A1's FGA is successful then Team B will get the ball for a throw-in anywhere along the endline in its backcourt. BUT, A1's FGA is NOT successful we have a Jump Ball situation and the ball is put back into play via the AP Arrow.

Billy's waiting to see who gets the rebound is common because we no longer use the more equitable Jump Ball to put the ball back into play, we instead use the Alternating Possession Arrow (which I call an abomination upon the game, to which Billy responds: "Oh just shut up!" Beat you to it, my Christmas present to you Billy, . The wrist and elbow are sore though and wish I could be officiating with Mark, Jr., tonight, like I was supposed to be doing, instead of watching him officiating while recovering from this minor surgery.)

This is something that has always bothered me and I'm probably going to submit a proposal to have it changed since in my opinion Team A clearly gains an advantage.

3.3.7 Situation B: A1 discovers she is bleeding and intentionally wipes blood on the arm of the both B4 and B5. In (a) neither the referee or umpire observes the bleeding or the action of A1; (b) U1 observes that A1 is bleeding from a cut on her arm; (c) U1 observes B4 and B5 with blood on their arm; or (d) U1 observes A1 bleeding, and observes A1’s action of wiping blood on the arm of B4 and B5. RULING: In (a), A1 must leave the game when the bleed is discovered; (b) A1 must least the game when bleeding is observed; (c) B4 and B5 must leave the game when blood is observed on their person; (d) A1, B4, B5 must leave the game and, A1 is changed with a technical foul for an unsporting act. If in the judgment of U1 the actions of A1 were flagrant, A1 would be disqualified from further competition. Any player or legally entering substitute may attempt the two free throws, after which B will have the ball for a division line throw-in. In all situations, a team may call time-out to keep a player in the game.

I think B4 and B5 should be allowed to stay in the game without a time-out because of A1's unsporting action.

Also, I don't think there's any judgment about it. If I observe a player intentionally wiping blood on another player they will be ejected.
