Understanding Goaltending Reviews: Arizona vs. UCLA

Arizona UCLA Goal Tend: This is a reviewable play since we have a called goaltending in the last 2 minutes of regulation. If this occurred outside of the last two minutes, the coach would have to use a challenge. At the monitor, we would decide this is legal play because the ball comes off the rim and has no chance of entering the basket. Our next decision is to see if there is possesion when our whistle occurs. If there is no possession, we will go to the AP Arrow. If there is possesion at the time of the whistle, the team with possession will keep the ball with no change of shot clock. Remember that an incorrect goaltending call is an inadvertent whistle, and any time there is an inadvertent whistle with no team control, if the offense retains possession we would set the shot clock to 20 seconds. We will put time on the game clock as to when we “thought” the goaltending violation occured, not when the referee signaled or blew his whistle.
