Rule 5-10-2 NOTE (NEW):
Rule 5-10-2 NOTE (NEW):
If the referee determines the game clock malfunctioned, was improperly started or stopped, or failed to run, an official’s visible or silent count, or other official information, may be used to correct the timing error.
RATIONALE:
Officials currently utilize visible counts for backcourt violations, closely guarded situations, and three-second violations. This change permits officials to also maintain silent counts that may be used as definite knowledge in correcting timing mistakes under Rule 5-10-1.
