Question
What decision will be given by the referee if a player deliberately scores a basket on his own side?
Solution
According to the FIBA (International Basketball Federation) and NBA rules, if a player deliberately scores a basket in his own team's hoop, the following ruling applies:
- The basket will not be counted as a valid score for the opponent.
- The opposing team will be awarded two points (or three points if it was a three-point attempt), but the points will be credited to the nearest opponent player as per official scoring rules.
- If the act is intentional or unsportsmanlike, the referee may issue a technical foul or unsportsmanlike conduct warning.
