I don't have my books with me... but...
is there a restriction on what B can do with the ball once the official starts his count that the ball is at B's disposal?
Play: A1 scores and B grabs the dead ball. B doesn't do anything with the ball for a second, and then the official decides that the ball is now B's disposal and starts the 5-second count.
Before B takes the ball to OOB for a valid throw-in, could they hypothetically not pass the ball to a teammate near half-court, then pass the ball back to OOB on the endline, then legally pass the ball inbound?
Ruling: ?
