This is what I have been saying for years. FIBA and NBA/WNBA do it correctly. Jump balls for all held ball and situations where a jump ball is required.
I disagree. Keep the AP, especially in women's ball. I have a bad rotator cuff and don't want to be tossing the ball up 30 or 40 times a game. Let's scrap the jump ball all together. Let's start the game and every extra period with a coin toss or rock, paper and scissors.
