The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.

A1 is fouled in the act of shooting by B1 and awarded two free throws. After the first free throw, the Center official notices that A1 is bleeding from his nose. The coach of Team A is notified  and made aware of his options to substitute for A1, take 20 seconds to clean/stop the blood, or request a timeout. The coach of Team A decides to substitute A6 for A1. A6 is beckoned onto the court by the referee.

While the blood is being cleaned from the floor, the coach of Team A changes his mind and wants to substitute A7 for A6.

Handle the situation.

A-1 drives to the basket and a foul by B-3 is ruled by the Lead while A-1 is going up for a layup.  B5 attempts to block the shot, misses and winds up slapping the backboard causing it to shake.  The ball hits the ring but does not go in the basket.

Both teams are in the bonus.  There is 3.4 seconds on the clock in the fourth quarter.  The score is tied.  Team A has the ball for a throw-in from the end line in backcourt.  A-1 throws a long pass down court.  A-4 and B-4 jump to catch the pass near the free throw line.  A-4 fouls B-4 just as the ball is arriving and a foul is ruled by the Lead.  The clock now shows 2.4 seconds.
