was using my Athletic Rules Study cd today to test my basketball knowledge for fun. and this T/F question came up:

Team B controls the game starting jump ball, Team A will start the AP when the first jump ball situation occurs.

I said TRUE

the program says FALSE

if it's false, why?

The key here is "will start the AP when the first jump ball situation occurs." The AP begins for Team A not when the first jump ball siutation occurs but immediately after Team B controls the tip. Team A is considered to have the AP until they relinquish it in the 1st held ball situation.
