A is at the free throw line, ref gives ball to A, they have full control, dribble a couple times, then lose the ball. the 10 second time is not up and they have not left the semi-circle. Team As coach calls time out....does this buy them out of the violation?

I said no, but couldnt find it in the casebook. I looked under free throws and time outs. He said its in there, any help is appreciated~~~

Would be the same as a backcourt scenario. You didn't pick up counts halfway. If coach thought shooter was approaching 10 seconds even though he was preparing to shoot would be the same as you describe.
