As everyone said, legal. And btw, you don't have to wait for the ball to bounce on the floor, even off the backboard is legal, or as it comes down from over the top.
Uh, Juulie, wouldn't "over the top" make it OOB, and thus illegal?
Good point though about not having to wait for it to hit the floor. In NFHS or NCAA you may catch your own airball.
See the Nevada/GT game in this year's NCAA tourney.
