It's pretty simple, but the inbounds spot will be the closest to where the violation or foul occurred. If you have your Official's Manual, there should be a graphic in there showing this. Picture a triangle, starting at the top of the FT circle, and going to the corners, with the endline as the bottom of the triangle. Any violation within this area, the ball is put in play along the endline. Now picture a line going from the top of this triangle to the other end of the court to the other FT circle. This should divide the court in half. Any violation (or foul) that occurs, for example, on the left side of this line, and outside the triangle, will be put in play along the left sideline.
Does that make sense?
