Is this an out of bounds violation? The ball passes behind the backboard on this cross-court pass. Is that considered out of bounds?
Two choices: This is a violation. This is not a violation.
My comment: This is not a violation. The front, top, sides, and bottom of the backboard are all in play. The ball cannot legally pass over, but it can pass behind, a rectangular backboard from either direction. The back of a backboard is out of bounds, as well as the supporting structures.
