I think that there are tow keys to this play.
1) A1 did not carry the ball onto the court, i.e., step on to the court with the ball.
2) A1 had not yet released the ball on a pass.
Therefore, I think (and I may be wrong), that under all three (NFHS, NCAA, and FIBA) codes, A1 has not committed a throw-in violation. Hopefully Duane will add his expertise per FIBA rules to this play.
