Kid steals the ball, goes in for the layup and scores as the buzzer goes off!

Hey, you got it! Looks like that gym has pretty decent lighting (for a school gym) at least at the end you were shooting from.

That is why I worded my comment the way I did cause it sure looked like it was dark at the other end. ;)

I shoot the girl's game from all over the gym, got tired of junk pics. For the boys, that got half court pics only! A lot of action and happy campers!

Nice sequence. But are you sure the ball isn't still touching the shooters fingers when the clock expired? LOL

Looks like an OT game to me.

Per the ref who was there, 2 seconds were put on the clock and the foul shots were taken and missed. Per the ref, the basket was good! The ball was in the basket as the buzzer went off!

I wouldn't argue with the ref, but it does seem like the photo shows the clock expired and the ball hasn't left the hand. In the pros, that's how the rules are; if the ball has left the hand before the clock expires and is in the air and scores after the clock has expired, the goal counts.
