TC2 Hapoel Holon vs Tsmoki Minsk UF Basketball Champions League

After a turn-over, Black 7 passes the ball to Black 6, who starts a fast break. When he is going for a lay-up, Yellow 4 creates an illegal contact on the arm and the referee calls an Unsportsmanlike Foul. Article 37.1.1 Bullet 2 An unsportsmanlike foul is a player contact which, in the judgement of a referee is: Excessive, hard contact caused by a player in an effort to play the ball or an opponent. Article 37.2.3 A player shall be disqualified for the remainder of the game when he is charged with 2 unsportsmanlike fouls or 2 technical fouls, or with 1 technical foul and 1 unsportsmanlike foul Article 37.2.4 If a player is disqualified under Art. 37.2.3, that unsportsmanlike foul shall be the only foul to be penalised and no additional penalty for the disqualification shall be administered. Outcome: Correct decision from the referees. The illegal contact created by Yellow 4 meets the criteria to be called as an Unsportsmanlike Foul as it was an excessive hard contact. Moreover, as this was the second UF committed by Yellow 4, this player shall be disqualified for the remainder of the game. Black 6 shall attempt 2 free throws with no line up followed by a Black team throw-in at the throw-in line and 14 seconds on the shot clock. No additional penalty for the disqualification shall be administered.
