20 Years Experience
Chicago, IL
Male, 60
For twenty years I officiated high school, AAU and park district basketball games, retiring recently. For a few officiating is the focus of their occupation, while for most working as an umpire or basketball referee is an avocation. I started ref'ing to earn beer money during college, but it became a great way to stay connected to the best sports game in the universe. As a spinoff, I wrote a sports-thriller novel loosely based on my referee experiences titled, Advantage Disadvantage

Share Answer: 
If neither player is entitled to the air space where they collide, it should be treated as incidental contact, regardless of the severity of the impact.
Share Answer: 
A two handed bounce is double dribble. So is dribbling a second time after holding the ball. Both are violations.
