Another Myth Bites The Dust ....
If a player's momentum carries him or her off the court, he or she can be the first player to touch the ball after returning inbounds. That player must not have left the court voluntarily and must immediately return inbounds. That player must have something in and nothing out. It is not necessary to have both feet back inbounds. It is a violation for a player to intentionally leave the court for an unauthorized reason.
Is it possible, in the original post, that the official thought the player has possession before going out of bounds, and that after legally coming back in bounds, started a dribble, which was an illegal, or double dribble?
