Jump ball-Held Ball (Video)

[JRutledge]

For the record I posted this for this kind of discussion.

But since I was one of the officials on this play, I clearly saw possession by the Red player first. Part of the discussion I had with my partner was asking if he had the same thing. He did so we went with a held ball and possession to white. It was not as clear on the video as I had a clear look at the Red player and how his hands were on the ball. Actually the White player as I remember it correctly only tied the ball up after the second attempt to grab the ball. The video does not confirm that as the ball is mostly hidden from the camera angle. And most of all, it was close and why we get paid the big bucks.

Peace
