this is a back over situation in FIBA. By have a foot in the front court, he has front court status. The FIBA has changed this year but it regards only the defender who may intercept a ball and land straddling the line or even in the back court. A dribbler only may straddle the line and dribble (new for FIBA) this year, they cannot pass to someone who is straddling the line or in the backcourt.
