Whenever B has earned the ball through a foul, violation, steal, or rebound, they have possession. They have earned the possession the moment of the foul, violation, rebound or steal...even if the throwin (for the violation or foul) has not even begun. After that point, the merited FTs should be shot with the lane cleared.
So you'd say it isn't when they receive the ball for the throw-in, but when the violation is committed?
Yes...B has earned the ball by forcing A to commit a violation. We'll correct the merited FTs but B still earned the ball. To put them on the lane makes them have to earn it again.
