Or it goes straight back to the guy who shot it and is now standing 2 feet from the basket.
I also don't think there's that many blocks out of bounds where there are that many alternatives.
Maybe 1 a game?
Most blocks out of bounds are the result of where the block happens. e.g. someone coming in for a layup and the angle the defender is coming means the ball will head towards the baseline if it is blocked.
