Backcourt Violation
The location of an airborne player is determined by where he was last at. In this case the player was in the frontcourt, went airborne (where he caught the ball), then landed in backcourt.
When the player caught the ball, because he had frontcourt status, the ball now has frontcourt status. When the player lands in backcourt we have a violation.
