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 driving to the basket for a layup. A-1 releases the ball that hits the backboard and the ring. As this is happening, B-1 makes a legitimate attempt to block the try and slaps the backboard. This causes the ball to roll off the ring. The official rules basket interference. Was the official correct?
