If I remember from the highlight - both feet were over in the front court establishing himself, as a player, as being in the front court. Then by the natural movement of heading back to help with the ball pressure, he jumped from the front court, caught the ball and landed in the back court. It was a slight lapse in judgement on his part and the correct call either in HS or college. The 3 points rule that you are refering too concerns the player possessing the ball.
Damnit - too slow on the reply. That is what I get for hitting rewind on the Tivo to make sure I saw the play properly
