Excellent Quiz by Goht Van Den Brink  
Situation:
• While free thrower A1 has started the throwing motion 
• B1 pushes A2 along the lane line. 
• After the contact, B2, who is in a marked lane space, enters the lane too soon.
 
Q1: In this situation, the foul does not cause the ball to become dead immediately, so the play includes two infractions: first a foul, then a violation.
 
Q2: If the free throw is successful, the basket counts. If the try is unsuccessful, Team A is awarded a substitute free throw.
 
Q3: Only the head coach and team bench may receive an unsporting conduct warning, which is recorded in the scorebook.
 
Q4: The scorer is responsible for maintaining the alternating-possession arrow.
 
Q5: When should officials remove their jackets when working a two or three person crew?
a. When warm-ups are completed
b. When the National Anthem is completed
c. When player introductions are completed
d. Right before the tip-off
 
 
 
 
Answers:
Q1: True. The continuous motion applies (4-11)
Q2: True. Even though the foul occurred first, violation is the first to be penalized if A1’s try is unsuccessful. (4-11, 6-7 Exception C, 9-1 Penalty 2)
Q3: True (C.B. 4.48 Note)
Q4: True. The scorer is responsible for recording and maintaining the alternating-possession arrow, while the referee verifies its accuracy. (2-11-7)
Q5: a When warm-ups are completed. (IAABO Manual p. 373; 2-7-6; NFHS Officials Manual p.11)
