Basketball Officials Exam - Question #3

Play #3 - During the 2nd of two free throws by A1 the ball hits the back of the ring, then the front of the ring and comes to rest on the flange. After a second or two, the officials rule a violation on Team A and award the ball to Team B along the end line. Were the officials correct?

Answer: The officials were NOT correct. By rule, an alternating possession throw-in would result from this play. The fact that it was a free throw instead of a try is not relevant. The designated spot throw-in would be made by the team entitled to the next AP possession and would be from the endline on either side of the lane.
