Question

When a defender attempts to block a 10-foot shot and touches it while the ball is on its downward flight, what should the referee call?

One Line Answer

Solution

If the ball is above the ring it is a ball tending violation and it is counted as a valid field basket. If it is below the ring, the ball is still alive and game continues i.e. referee does not blow the whistle.
