In real time, it looked marginal at best -- especially with the camera angle -- as to whether W30 was out of her lane space before the free thrower released the try. I'd likely pass on this (can't call what we're not 100% sure about), but I'd also be watching that more closely for the rest of the game to catch any violations that might occur.
