What answer(s) are correct?


POTW 11-29-08
Correct answers were: B & D

Why are B & D correct?
Let's look at the following rules - Rule 4 Sect. 36 Art 2b and
Rule 7 Sect. 5 Art 7b
Team A is awarded a TI after the basket and the double personal foul requires the ball to be put in play at the Point of Interruption. Since these are common fouls then Team A does not lose its right to run the baseline after the score.

Play: After a basket by Team B, A1 is out of bounds holding the ball for a throw-in. Before the T-I ends A2 & B2 are called for a double foul near the division line. How will play continue?
a) This will result in an AP throw-in
b) Team A will receive the throw-in
c) The throw-in will be nearest the spot of the foul
d) The throw-in will be anywhere along the endline where the original throw-in was to occur
e) The throw-in shall be a designated spot throw-in along the endline where the original throw-in was to occur

Hi Dave
I believe it's A and C. Since they were in the huddle A! is bench personnel, the indirect T results in lose of bench privilege. ;D
