Q.23) B1 commits an unsportsmanlike foul on A1 who is in the act of shooting. The basket is successful. A1 is then assessed a technical foul.

A2 who has both feet completely in the frontcourt does not control the ball, but deflects it into Team A's backcourt. A3 is the first player to touch the ball after it has returned to the backcourt. Is this a violation for illegally returning the ball to the backcourt? Art A team is in control of a live ball in their frontcourt if a player of that team is touching his frontcourt with both feet while holding, catching or dribbling the ball in his frontcourt. Since the action by A2 did not establish control in the frontcourt Team A have not illegally returned the ball to the backcourt. Q.30) A1 releases a try for goal with 10 seconds displayed on the shot clock. While the ball is in the air, B4 fouls A4. This is Team B's 3 rd foul in the period. The try is successful.

The official credits A4 s field goal and awards 2 free throws to A2 plus a Team A throw-in at centre. Is this correct? Art The ball does not become dead due to the foul by B3 as A4 has started the act of shooting. The basket would count. If A2 committed the Unsportsmanlike foul on B3 in this situation then the ball would become dead immediately and the basket would not count. Q.32) A substitution opportunity has ended when A10 runs to the scorer and requests a substitution. The scorer erroneously sounds the horn. The official blows his whistle and interrupts the game. Shall the substitution be granted at this time? FIBA Interp. 18/19-13 Example: Because the request was made too late, the substitution or time-out shall not be granted. The game shall resume immediately. Q.33) A1 has been dribbling in the backcourt for 5 seconds. A1's pass from the backcourt hits B1 who is straddling the mid-court line. The ball bounces back to A1 who catches the ball while still in the backcourt. Shall the official start a new 8-second count? Art The team has caused the ball to go into its frontcourt whenever: The ball touches or is legally touched by a defensive player who has part of his body in contact with his backcourt, This means the rest of his body is in the frontcourt. The ball has attained frontcourt status when it touches B1 and rebounds into backcourt to player A so a new 8 second count would start. This would not be an over and back situation as Team A did not gain control of the ball in the frontcourt (two feet and the ball Art. 30). Q.34) Shall the shot clock be reset when a throw-in directly hits the rim of the opponent's basket? Art and FIBA Interp Example:.. Only a shot at an opponent s basket from a player on the playing court that hits the rim or enters the basket resets the shot clock. Q.35) After taking control of a defensive rebound, B-1 dribbles off his foot and the ball goes out-of-bounds. Shall the shot clock be reset to 24 seconds for the throw-in by Team A in their frontcourt? Art This would be an out of bounds violation on B and a change of possession.

The ball then enters the basket. Shall the basket count? FIBA Interp Statement.

6 Art If a player accidentally scores a field goal in his team s basket, the goal counts 2 points and shall be recorded as having been scored by the captain of the opposing team on the playing court. If A2 deliberately scored on his/her own basket then it would be a violation and the basket would not count. Throw-in would be at the free throw line extended in the frontcourt. Q.38) A time out is granted to Team A. As the players are proceeding to their respective bench area, player A1 pushes player B1. Is this a technical foul?

B1 jumps and bats the ball away. Is B1's action legal? Art Once the ball has touched the ring when the game clock is running any player on either team may touch the ball if it is on the ring or rebounded above the ring. Q.41) A1 ends a dribble and releases the ball on a try for goal. The ball completely misses the ring and is not touched by anyone before A1 retrieves the ball and starts a dribble. Is the official correct in calling a double dribble violation? Art Player and Team control has ended on the release of the shot for a goal. Since A1 retrieves the ball a new Player and Team control has started and he/she may dribble the ball again. Q.42) The closely guarded rule only applies when a player is holding the ball in his frontcourt. Is this correct? Art The closely guarded rule is in effect everywhere on the playing court. Q.43) A1 scores a basket. A fight erupts and substitutes A10, B10, and B11 leave their respective team bench area. The two fighting players are assessed a double foul and are disqualified. A10, B10, and B11 are also disqualified for leaving the team bench area. Shall play resume with a jump ball? Art and Even though two players leave the Team B bench area there would only be one Bench Technical called on them as per Rule Therefore we would have a double foul for the fight and the penalties would cancel for the Team A and Team B Bench T s. The ball would be given to Team B on their backcourt endline as Team A had scored prior to the fight.

7 Q.44) On a fast break, A1 ends his dribble at the free throw line, throws the ball against the backboard, continues his movement toward the basket, jumps, catches it again before it is touched by another player and dunks the ball.

Q.46) B1 commits a foul on dribbler A1. A10 substitutes for A1. An official puts the ball at the disposal of A2 for a throw-in. It is then discovered that the foul by B1 was the 5 th foul by Team B in the period. The officials ask that A1 reenter the court to attempt the free throws. Both free throws are successful. Must A1 remain as a player for at least one running phase of the game clock? Art The substitution for A1 was an error. A1 would be considered as never having left the court and can be substituted if the last free throw is successful. Q.47) While on the bench during the 1 st period, substitute A10 impolitely addresses an official. A technical foul is called. In the third period, A10 has substituted and is now a player. He swears at an opponent and is assessed a technical foul. By rule, shall A10 be disqualified? Art and The first Technical Foul would be assigned to the Coach as a Bench Technical and not assigned to player A10. The 2 nd Technical would be assigned to player A10. By rule two player T s are cause for disqualification so A1 would not be disqualified. Q.48) Shall the game clock be stopped when the 24-second signal sounds and a team is in control of the ball?
