Two Feet And The Ball ???

Black 33 had already picked up her dribble when she made the pass to Black 24 who was in the backcourt.

Because she wasn't dribbling, the "two feet and the ball" rule doesn't apply, it only applies to a player dribbling the ball across the division line.

Before she made the pass to the backcourt, Black 33 had her right foot fully in the frontcourt and her left foot on the division line, with part of her shoe in the backcourt and part of her shoe in the frontcourt.

I believe that her position and location gave her player control and her team team control in the frontcourt.

But, or course, I could be wrong in my interpretation.

Maybe it's the pivot foot that should matter here?
