They are saying the throw-in is where the ball went out-of-bounds, not where it was originally inbounded even though no player touched the ball. Which is it since I can't seem to locate it in the books?

Thanks
I must admit, I'm surprised an association with, I'm guessing, more than a handful of officials would not know this one.

I was working a Varsity game last year and B1 kicks the ball under A's basket, whistle is blown immediately and official signals a kicked ball as it rolls out of bounds on opposite endline, where he signals the spot throw-in shall take place. It took a huddle to convince him he was wrong.

Brain fart as he's a good official.
