RIGHT OR WRONG?
The following questions focus on the document, “FIBA Official Basketball Rules: Official Interpretations.” A free download is provided on the FIBA web-site (www.fiba.com). For additional clarifications, explanations or examples, please consult this document.
1. Dribbler A3 commits an unsportsman-like foul against B4. This is the 3rd team foul for team A in that period. Shall free-throws be awarded to B4?
2. During the pre-game warm-up, a technical foul is committed by a team A player. Shall this foul count as one of the fouls leading to the penalty situation in the 1st period?
3. A shot for a field goal by A1 is in the air when the 24-second signal sounds. The ball then fails to touch the ring or enter the basket, after which it is immediately controlled by a team B player. Shall the officials disregard the signal and allow play to continue without interruption?
4. A4, within the two-point area, attempts a pass to A5. The ball is above the ring when B5 reaches through the basket from below and touches the ball. Shall A4 be awarded two points?
5. While dribbling, A4 has one foot on either side of the centre line. As he is closely guarded by B4 and B5 he stops his dribble. Is the ball now considered to be in the team A frontcourt?
6. Close to the end of a period B4 inadvertently taps the ball towards his own basket. The ball enters the basket clearly after the signal sounds to end that period. Shall the basket count?
7. After a three-second violation without the ball having been entered the basket, shall the following throw-in be administered from the sideline at the free-throw line extended?
8. Team A has been in control of the ball in the team A backcourt for five seconds when the game is stopped due to an injury of A4. When play resumes shall team A now have only three seconds to advance the ball to the front-court?
9. On a pass the ball is deflected from a player’s shoulder and then touches the ring. Is the 24-second operator correct when he stops and resets his 24-second device?
10. On a rebound A4 gasps the ring with one hand and dunks the ball with his other hand. Shall the basket count?
