Made Basket – End of Period

Since the 2002-03 season, officials have reviewed all successful field goals that clear the net with no time remaining on the clock (0:00). This is an automatic trigger, and referees are required to conduct the review regardless of score.

Reviewable Matters:

  1. Game clock expired before the ball left the shooter’s hand
  2. Successful field goal was scored correctly as a 2-point field goal or 3-point field goal
  3. Whether the shooter committed a boundary line violation or the ball touched out of bounds prior to entering the basket
  4. 24-second clock expired
  5. 8-second backcourt violation
  6. Whether any unsportsmanlike acts or unnecessary contact occurred

Notes:

  1. Instant replay would NOT be used to check a successful basket if the throw-in, free throw attempt or jump ball started with .2 or .1 on the game clock
