Ask and it will be given to you; seek and ye shall find ... (Matthew 7:7)
4-4-7: A ball is at the disposal of a player when it is:
a. Handed to a thrower or free thrower.
b. Caught by a player after it is bounced to him/her.
c. Placed on the floor at the spot.
d. Available to a player after a goal and the official begins the throw-in count.
Now we just need a NFHS definition for "available to a player" (only for after a basket) and we're ready to rock and roll.
For the good of the cause: The nonshooting team can be granted a timeout before the bounced ball is caught by the free thrower.
The ball becomes live when: On a free throw, it is at the disposal of the free thrower.
Note: When do we ever (by the manual) hand the ball to the free thrower (see a. above)? I haven't done that for over thirty years. Am I right Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.?
