When can a timeout be called? During a dead ball or when in player/team control, correct?
Situation: A1 has the ball for a throw in on B's endline with 6 seconds left down by 2. A1 throws the ball in to A2 who throws a baseball pass down court toward A3. While the ball is in the air, A's coach is screaming for a timeout which is recognized by the C official.
Should the timeout be granted?
Rule 4.12.1-6
Art 2 states: A team is in control of the ball when a player of the team is in control, while a live ball is being passed among teammates and during an interrupted dribble.

It can but I would wait and see who catches the ball on a baseball pass. What if you are calling TO and the defense intercepts the pass>?
Then you have a mess.
Thanks
