With regard to the closely guarded rule...If a ball handler has been closely guarded by one defender for say 3 seconds and another defender then picks up this ball handler and continues to guard him closely for another 2 count(while the first defender peels away and picks up someone else)...can this constitute a 5 second violation? In this example, there is never a time when the ball handler was not being closely guarded.

Yes in FED.
No in NCAA (the same defender must be guarding for 5 seconds for a violation).
