Explanation for NFHS (high school) rules:
There is no team control during the throw-in. The inbounds player did not catch the ball, which would have establised both player and team control, he merely touched it or had it touch him before going into the backcourt, where control was finally obtained. The backcourt provision takes effect only once control is gained, so there could not have been a violation prior to the ball first being held in the backcourt.
