No Backcourt Violation ...
4-4-6: During a dribble from backcourt to frontcourt, the ball is in the
frontcourt when the ball and both feet of the dribbler touch the court
entirely in the frontcourt.
When a dribbler is advancing the ball into the frontcourt, the ball maintains backcourt status until both feet, and the ball, touch entirely in the frontcourt.
The four elements for having a backcourt violation are: there must be team control (and initial player control when coming from a throwin); the ball must have achieved frontcourt status; the team in team control must be the last to touch the ball before it goes into the backcourt; that same team must be the first to touch after the ball has been in the backcourt.
Tough bang-bang play in real time either way. Two officials in the video had this as a backcourt violation. It's a lot easier to call, or not call, on a video that we can look at several times. The fact that the player is dribbling backwards into the frontcourt makes this an odd looking play.
