Situation would be A1 on right wing passs to a2 at top of key, then delays a second, goes around the post screen oob at baseline. While out of bounds, a2 passes to a3 at left wing. A1 then gets back inbounds on block on left side and receives pass from a3. Vioation, or legal?
Sure, if A3 has the ball while A1 is OOB, then A3 passes it to A1 after A1 comes back inbounds - violation.

I just haven't seen it called all that often, so either it doesn't happen, or it isn't high on many officials' list of things to call.
