The rule
Under FIBA rules and in the NBA and WNBA, a team has 24 seconds to attempt a shot that hits the rim. When the ball touches the rim and the offense gets the rebound, the clock goes back to 14 seconds, not 24.
The clock is reset to the full 24 when possession changes. After certain fouls and violations in the frontcourt it is set to 14 if fewer than 14 seconds remain. The exact cases are in the FIBA Official Basketball Rules and the NBA rulebook.
In practice
In practice you rarely have an operator for a real shot clock. Here the phone is the remote: start, pause, reset to 14 with one tap, or nudge a second up or down when you missed the moment.
A shorter clock is one of the simplest constraints in basketball practice. Set 14 or 10 seconds for the whole scrimmage and the offense has to read the first advantage instead of resetting. Set 8 seconds and start every possession late in the clock to practice end-of-clock plays.
Want reps on the clock? Drill mode in Pro runs the clock, the rest and the next rep for you. Ideas: shot clock drills.
On match day
Training is the default: free, with the times you choose. For games, match mode in Pro follows FIBA timing. The reset buttons become 24 (new possession) and 14 (offensive rebound), and the screen goes blank after a reset to the full clock until play starts again. With the game clock on screen, the shot clock turns off when less game time than shot clock time remains.
Questions
Is the shot clock 24 or 14 seconds after an offensive rebound?
Under FIBA and NBA rules it resets to 14 seconds when the offense rebounds a shot that hit the rim. The 14 button on the remote does exactly that.
Can I show the shot clock on a TV in the gym?
Yes. Open the display on a laptop or smart TV browser connected to the big screen, scan the QR code with your phone, and the phone controls the clock.
Does it work without internet?
The single-device mode works offline once the page has loaded. Phone plus screen needs internet on both devices, mobile data is fine.
