Jump ball held ball plus injury.

7-3-2.
Though I'd never want to be construed as speaking for Bob who is right.

That said, you can go with 2-3 if you want. Honestly, since it's not covered by rule, I'd have a hard time telling anyone their wrong if they came to the other conclusion (allowing anyone to jump). Most of us won't have more than a handful of held balls on the opening tip anyway; the odds of one of those 5 situations involving an injury are infinitely small.

Fair enough.

Good call on 7-3-2. Knew there was a scenario for a jump not involving a retoss of opening tip but didnt remember exactly and don't have my books.

Now I know this given the .001 chance it happens in a game any time soon.

I've had it happen in the last two years or so. Opening tap never controlled and two players tie it up without team control being established -- it's not *that* rare of a situation.

I had 4 one season, but I've never heard of anyone actually having an injury occur on the play.

Same here - first jump, the ball went oob, off of opponents, by my U1, and of course, both of the original jumpers tried to go to the circle. I had to explain to both coaches and the players that A2 and B2 would jump.
On the ensuing jump, the ball was held by A3 and B3, and they had to jump . . . That time we got the game going.

I had it happen in my second game ever. It was JH girls. We got it right even. The coach didn't agree saying "this ain't the NBA."
