OBI, offensive player contacts ball on downward flight with opportunity to score Goaltending, defensive player contacts the rim while ball still has an opportunity to score Goaltending, defensive player contacts the rim while ball still has an opportunity to score
“This is an example of a goaltending violation. The defensive player, Bruce Brown, contacts both the rim and the backboard, and the contact shakes the backboard, causing the ball to take an ‘unnatural bounce.’ This is a goaltending violation, as no player may contact the rim or backboard while a shot is in progress and still has an opportunity to score.”
