Actually, the shot clock could start without the offense having team control. If A1 passes the ball inobunds, A2 deflects the ball but doesn't control it, the shot clock would still start. However, if there was a ten second count being used, it would not start. Of course, there is no BC count is Girls AAU.
Right, but I was under the assumption that the ball never made it inbounds. I thought we were trying to determine if the clock started when the player designated to inbound the ball gathered control.....but a good point, none the less!
