Foul – End of Period

Since the 2002-03 season, referees have reviewed all called fouls that occur 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.

During the review, referees use video to confirm, if they can, whether the game clock expired before the foul occurred.

Reviewable Matter:

  1. Foul committed prior to the expiration of time on the game clock
  2. Shooter releases the ball prior to expiration of time on the game clock
  3. Shooter fouled was attempting a 2-point field goal or 3-point field goal
  4. Whether the shooter or player fouled committed a boundary line violation or the ball touched out of bounds prior to entering the basket
  5. 24-second clock expired
  6. 8-second backcourt violation occurred
  7. Whether any unsportsmanlike acts or unnecessary contact occurred
  8. Whether a flopping violation proximate to the called foul should be assessed or rescinded

Notes:

  1. The officials will adjust the game and shot clocks if appropriate
