  5. A player located in their team's backcourt violates the provisions of the jump ball at the start of the game or any overtime;
  6. The alternating-possession procedure is used to determine which team shall be awarded the ball following a held ball or other stoppage that occurred in the offense/shooting team's backcourt, and the alternating-possession arrow favors the opposing team;

  8. Sound the shot-clock horn at the expiration of the shot-clock period. The shot-clock horn shall not stop play unless recognized by an official's whistle. When the shot clock indicates zeroes but the shot-clock horn has not sounded, the shot-clock time has not expired.

  10. Allow the timing device to continue during a loose-ball situation when the offense retains control, when a field-goal try is attempted at the wrong basket, or when a field-goal try fails to strike the ring or flange.

10. Allow the game officials to make the final decision when there is doubt as to whether a score was made within the shot-clock period or whether a try for goal contacted the ring or flange.
