Question
a1 goes for a lay up and release the ball, b1 runs after him tried to block the lay up but did not succeed, a1 goes out of bound due to momemtum, b1 runs into a1. what is the call if any

Answer
Fred,

If contact was made by B-1 way after the lay up attempt and A-1 is now out of bounds, no foul call would be made especially if A-1 is out of bounds since a player cannot draw or commit a foul while standing out of bounds, with the exception of a Technical Foul.

Expertise

My expertise is in the art of Officiating Basketball and I can answer questions pertaining to basketball rules; youth level through CIF High School, NCAA college and NBA rules as well. I can either help define a specific rule for you, or interpret a specific rule to clarify how other officials and I view and call the game.

Experience

I have been a Basketball Official now for over 19 years, officiating at all levels. I have attended numerous training camps throughout the years in an attempt to constantly become a better official. I have been evaluated by top Officiating organizations and I've had the honor of being selected to officiate at the highest levels including former Division 1 College and NBA players.
