WITH CORRECT ANSWERS
4-10 Closely Guarding - CORRECT-ANSWERSA closely guarded situation
occurs when a player in control of the ball in his/her team's frontcourt, is
continuously guarded by any opponent who is within six feet of the player
who is holding or dribbling the ball. The distance shall be measured from the
forward foot/feet of the defender to the forward foot/feet of the ball handler.
A closely guarded count shall be terminated when the offensive player in
control of the ball gets his/her head and shoulders past the defensive player.
4-37.3 Which players are entitled to a spot on the court - CORRECT-
ANSWERSEvery player is entitled to a spot on the playing court, provided the
player gets there first without illegally contacting an opponent.
4-40.2 To establish a legal screening position: - CORRECT-ANSWERSa. The
screener may face any direction.
b. Time and distance are relevant.
c. The screener must be stationary, except when both the screener and
opponent are moving in the same path and the same direction.
d. The screener must stay within his/her vertical plane with a stance
approximately shoulder width apart.
4-40.3 Screening within the visual field - CORRECT-ANSWERSWhen screening
a stationary opponent from the front or side (within the visual field), the
screener may be anywhere short of contact.
4-40.4 Screening outside the visual field - CORRECT-ANSWERSWhen
screening a stationary opponent from behind (outside the visual field), the
screener must allow the opponent one normal step backward without
contact.
4-40.5 Screening a moving opponent - CORRECT-ANSWERSWhen screening a
moving opponent, the screener must allow the opponent time and distance
to avoid contact by stopping or changing direction. The speed of the player
to be screened will determine where the screener may take his/her
, stationary position. The position will vary and may be one to two normal
steps or strides from the opponent.
4-40.6 Screening a opponent that is moving in the same path - CORRECT-
ANSWERSWhen screening an opponent who is moving in the same path and
direction as the screener, the player behind is responsible if contact is made
because the player in front slows up or stops and the player behind overruns
his/her opponent.
4-40.7 Being screened within the visual field - CORRECT-ANSWERSA player
who is screened within his/her visual field is expected to avoid contact by
going around the screener. In cases of screens outside the visual field, the
opponent may make inadvertent contact with the screener and if the
opponent is running rapidly, the contact may be severe. Such a case is to be
ruled as incidental contact provided the opponent stops or attempts to stop
on contact and moves around the screen, and provided the screener is not
displaced if he/she has the ball.
4-40.8 Screened players use of body to get through screen - CORRECT-
ANSWERSA player may not use the arms, hands, hips or shoulders to force
his/her way through a screen or to hold the screener and then push the
screener aside in order to maintain a guarding position on an opponent.
4-45 Basic components of the principle of verticality: - CORRECT-
ANSWERSART. 1 ... Legal guarding position must be obtained initially and
movement thereafter must be legal.
ART. 2 ... From this position, the defender may rise or jump vertically and
occupy the space within his/her vertical plane.
ART. 3 ... The hands and arms of the defender may be raised within his/her
vertical plane while on the floor or in the air.
ART. 4 ... The defender should not be penalized for leaving the floor vertically
or having his/her hands and arms extended within his/her vertical plane.
ART. 5 ... The offensive player whether on the floor or airborne, may not
"clear out" or cause contact within the defender's vertical plane, which is a
foul.
ART. 6 ... The defender may not "belly up" or use the lower part of the body
or arms to cause contact outside his/her vertical plane, which is a foul.
