Instinct tells me that this is legal so long has he does not leave his spot (on a designated throw in). Once the dribble touches inbounds, it's a violation on the retouch. Please help with the rule or case book here.

Thanks.
No rule against dribbling out of bounds, just big potential for a screw up, I think. 9-2-10: The thrower shall not be out of bounds when he/she touches or is touched by the ball after it has been released on a throw-in pass.
