It's no different than catching said ball and throwing it to a teammate in the BC.
Folks may not like it, it may not fit what people have always said, but it is a violation. This play is not DURING a throw-in.

. A player from
the team not in control (defensive player or during a jump ball or throw-in) may legally jump from his/her frontcourt, secure control of the ball with both feet off the floor and return to the floor with one or both feet in the backcourt. The player may make a normal landing and it makes no difference whether the first foot down is in the frontcourt or backcourt.
Immediately after the throw-in ends in this situation, there is no team control by either team. Therefore I conclude that
the team not in control in this instance means
either team. Therefore, no matter who jumps up and secures control in mid-air, he is entitled to come down anywhere on the court without a violation.
Do you suppose those NFHS guys would pay some of us to proofread?
