During an initial jump ball, A1 jumper taps the ball out-of-bounds. B1 has the ball for the throw-in when A2 commits an unsportsmanlike foul on B2. With B2 having the ball at his disposal for his 1st free throw, team B has gained the control of the live ball on the court. Team A shall be entitled to the next alternating possession.

A4 is awarded 1 free throw. After the referee has stepped into the restricted area to administer the free throw but before the ball is placed at the B4 disposal, team B request a time-out. The time-out is granted.

There is a limit to the number of steps a player may take around the pivot foot.

A3 appears to be injured and the game is stopped. A time-out is requested by team B. At the end of the time-out, A3 has recovered and asks to remain in the game and continue to play. The A3’s request shall be accepted.
