In Indiana HS basketball rules.. player A in the frontcourt passes the ball to player B who is also in the frontcourt, but jumps towards the backcourt, and catches the ball in the air, and lands in the backcourt. It is my opinion that this is a backcourt violation. Opinions ? Rules ?
Thanks in advance...

Not a violation. 9-9-ex.1 During a throw in.
Even though team control was established by player B, the exception is made during a jump ball or a throw in for a player to land before front court status is obtained.
If the ball is inbounds and in control of player A you have a violation.
