9-3-3: A player shall not step out of bounds under the player's own volition and then become the first player to touch the ball after returning to the playing court or to avoid a violation.
"As soon as".
What if the point guard dribbled the ball several times after A3 had returned to the court before passing the ball to A3?

Then A3 wasn't the FTT, correct?
