Question

Explain a situation of a basket interference.

Answer 1

1. Basket interference happens in basketball when a player illegally interferes with the ball as it travels to or through the basket. A typical case of basket interference occurs when the ball is in the cylinder above the basket's rim, and a player touches it.
2. For example, if a shot is taken and the ball remains in the air, hovering over the rim in a position to drop into the basket, no player is allowed to touch the ball, the rim, or the net until the ball enters or exits the cylinder.
