Rule 5...
SECTION 2 SCORING
ART. 1 . . . A successful try, tap or
thrown ball that does not touch the floor,
a teammate or official, from the field by a player who is located behind the team's own 19-foot, 9-inch line
count three points.
Any other goal from the field
counts two points for the team into whose basket the ball is thrown. See 4-5-5.
Three basic cases:
A1 throws the ball from behind the arc. No one else touches it. It goes in (try or not). 3 points.
A1 throws the ball from behind the arc. B1 tips the ball. It goes in (try or not). 3 points.
A1 throws the ball from behind the arc. A2 tips the ball. It goes in (try or not). 2 points.
