The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.
A-1 is awarded a one plus one bonus free throw situation. A-5 in the middle lane space fakes entering the lane before the free throw is released. B-5 in the first lane space enters the lane before the ball is released.
Handle the situation.
This is a free throw violation by A-5. No goal can be scored. If there are no further free throws, the ball will awarded to Team B for a designated spot throw-in at the spot nearest to where A-5 was located.
