This was from the Missouri/Kansas game. This didn't happen but after I saw a play kind of similar I thought of it. Team A shoots and ball rebounds off. Ball batted around without control to either team. Ball going out of bounds and A1 jumps in air, catches the ball and throws it into the backcourt.
1. Is there control in that situation even if A1 is in the air so if Team A gets the ball in the BC a violation would be called.
2. If A1 had done a controlled tip saving the ball would this change anything?
I seem to remember that some people here said that if a player tries to do a controlled tip off a rebound to a teammate and that goes in the BC then there isn't a violation because there isn't control.
----In the game a player saved the ball while going out of bounds. He had control of it and threw it behind into the backcourt. I think his feet were on the ground. Team was then called for a bc violation. Not sure what happened before.
