Basketball Officials Exam - Question #7


Play #7 - In the 4th quarter, Team A has 58 points and Team B has 58 points. As A1 dribbles the ball up the court, the time is winding down. 5-4-3-2-1 seconds, with 1 second left on the clock, A1 makes a shot attempt at the basket, before the horn sounds. A1 misses the basket, but was fouled shooting a 2 pointer by B1. After the foul occured, there is no more time on the clock. The referee clears everyone out and A1 reports to the free throw line to shoot 2 free throws. A1 makes the first attempt putting his team ahead 59-58. Question, does the referee administer the 2nd free throw or is the game over?

By rule, after the first free throw is shot and made, with Team A taking the lead, and there being no time on the clock, the official ruling is the game is over and there will not be a 2nd free throw administered.
