While the thrower may pass to a teammate who is OOB after a made or awarded basket, the pass onto the court still must be directly into the court.
NFHS 7-5-7 After a goal or awarded goal as in 7-4-3, the team not credited with the score shall make the throw-in from the end of the court where the goal was made and from any point outside the end line. ... Any player of the team
may make a direct throw-in OR he/she may pass the ball along the end line to a teammate(s) outside the boundary line.
There is no circumstance where the spin-pass-thingee described is legal. The problem, as has been stated, is not the spin, but that the pass bounced OOB before coming inbounds, it was not "directly into the court" (NFHS 7-6-1)
