I'm not sure what you mean by this.
Because there is no team control during the period immediately after a throwin, and thus, no offensive, nor defensive, players?
Lack of team control during the period immediately after a throwin (and, thus lack of offensive, and defensive, players) continues until one team gains player control, and thus, team control?
Same thing (lack of offensive, and defensive, players) during a jump ball continues until one team gains player control, and thus, team control?
9-9-3: ... while on defense, a player may legally jump from his/her frontcourt, secure control of the ball with both feet off the floor and return to the floor with one or both feet in the backcourt. The player may make a normal landing and it makes no difference whether the first foot down is in the frontcourt or backcourt.
