This situation happening is the officials fault. They have to get the shooter. Yes, Kentucky tried to get the other guy on the line. However the officials need to get the right guy.

Yahoo article..
It's possible Poythress took the foul shots because he thought he drew a blocking foul on Montrezl Harrell as he drove baseline before dishing to Noel, but the majority of the evidence suggests that wasn't the call that was made. The referee who blew his whistle did so after Smith's foul and pointed directly at Smith. Plus, the play-by-play in the box score attributes the foul to Smith.

Kentucky reply....
"Our bench argued that Poythress was the shooter & the official notified the official scorer that #22 was the shooter," Kentucky executive associate athletic director for external operations DeWayne Peevy tweeted. "After seeing the tape, it might have been the wrong call but it wasn't a switch-a-roo. It was confirmed to the official scorer."

The official called a foul, which by the way, didn't look like much of a foul, then none of the 3 knew who the shooter was.
