No Assist, pass does not lead directly to made field goal – pass, dribbles around ball screen Assist, pass leads directly to made field goal – pass, dribble & pull-up jumper Assist, pass leads directly to made field goal - cutting player with no dribble
“On this play, the scoring player receives the ball just beyond the three-point line, dribbles and scores on pull-up jumper. An assist is credited to #46 in the blue uniform, John Konchar, since the player who scored received the pass and demonstrated an immediate reaction toward the basket. An assist is credited to the player tossing the last pass leading directly to a made field goal, but only if the player scoring the goal demonstrates an immediate reaction toward the basket after receiving the pass. Note also that an inbound pass can be credited as an assist if it leads directly to a field goal. By rule, no more than one assist can be credited for each field goal.”
