The "usual" play where this happens is the screen along the baseline that frees up the 3-point shooter. A1 might be guarded in the right corner while A2 holds the ball at the top of the key. A's teammates set the screen on A1's defender, A1 runs OOB along the baseline to the other corner, A2 hits them with pass and A1 hits the 3 pointer.

Okay, so theoretically, in Fed there's no way to pull this off legally, but in NCAA, if you could time the passes carefully, you might. I'm guessing it's more trouble than it's worth?
