2016-2017 Points of Emphasis 4. Protecting the Free Thrower Continues to be an area of emphasis Rule change last year was to protect the free thrower On release of the ball the defender “boxing out” shall not cross the free throw line into the semicircle until the ball contacts the ring Officials should be aware that contact & displacement of the free thrower is illegal & shall be enforced

REVIEW Points of Emphasis (2015-2016) Protecting the free-throw shooter Free thrower & players outside the 3-point line are not allowed to cross the free throw line & 3-point line until the ball makes contact with the backboard or the basket Players along lane spaces are allowed to enter on the release; as a result to this change, protection of the free thrower needs to be emphasized

REVIEW Points of Emphasis (2015-2016) Protecting the free-throw shooter (cont’d) When the defender crosses the free-throw line and into the semi-circle too soon, this is a violation A delayed violation signal is used; if the free throw is successful, the violation is ignored If the defender makes contact with the free thrower that is more than incidental, a personal foul is the correct ruling

2016-2017 Points of Emphasis Post Play An area of improvement, but… Continues to be an area of awareness & enforcement

REVIEW Points of Emphasis (2015-2016) Post play Legal for offensive & defensive players to touch when both are maintaining a legally established position Illegal contact on a post player is any tactic using hands or arms or just generally demonstrates rough physical movements that allows a player on offense or defense to control the movement of an opposing player
