Making The Call

Goaltending

This occurs when a defensive player interferes with a shot while it is on its way down toward the basket, or while it is on the way up after having touched the backboard (or while it is in the cylinder above the rim). The goal is awarded to the shooter. If an offensive player commits the violation the ball is awarded to the opposing team for a throw-in.
