RULE:

1.19-2

QUESTION:

If, at any point during a game, one of the shots stops working (and there are no portable devices ready), how do you proceed?

ANSWER:

The game will continue with the one functioning shot clock. If both devices fail to work, then the shot clock operator will use an alternate timing device at the scorer’s table and will cause the time to be announced for both teams.
