The inbound spot is the point OOB closest to where the infraction took place - that is, where the ball was touched that caused the violation. If the ball goes OOB untouched over the end line, then you would inbound it there (outside the lane extended, of course).
Many times I see officials use the wrong inbound spot on an over and back call. They wind up inbounding in what was the violating team's frontcourt by a few feet. I tell them that if that really was the proper inbound spot, there couldn't have been a violation. Also, sometimes you see officials want to inbound at the division line on all over and back violations regardless of where the ball was ultimately touched. This is also wrong.
