CNN —An Irish basketball team says it won’t replay the final 0.3 seconds of a playoff quarterfinal after it ended in controversial fashion, despite being instructed to do so by Basketball Ireland.
However, Basketball Ireland said the NLC then overruled that decision and confirmed only the final 0.3 seconds will be replayed at some point this week.
“Basketball Ireland will be in liaison with the clubs to determine when,” a statement from the governing body said.
“It would be in nobody’s interest and would be adherent to the values of the game of basketball,” the Panthers said.
CNN has also reached out to Basketball Ireland and FIBA for comment.
