The review rule

Section I—a(8) of the WNBA rules deals with in-game video reviews of referees' calls and non-calls. The passage that applied Thursday:

Following the second full timeout in the fourth period and any overtime period, the review will take place at the next clock stoppage, including immediately upon a successful basket when the clock stops in the last two minutes. If a 24-second shot clock violation is not reviewed in accordance with the foregoing timing rules, it may not be reviewed thereafter.
