NBD, just sorta interesting
Saw this last Friday evening: Team A having trouble inbounding against a heavy press. Finally, A1 standing oob with the ball, HANDS it to A2. I've never seen it in 11 years of reffing. It took me a minute to react, but I did. Girls were puzzled and needed an explanation. Hhmmm..... I'm thinking, "If it were legal, why wou,ldn't you do it every time?"
Last night: Different Team A having trouble inbounding against a heavy press. Finally, A1 standing oob with the ball, yells, "Uh-Oh!" A2 steps oob on the other side of the key, A1 passes it to her, A2 inbounds. Unfortunately, it wasn't after a made basket, it was a spot throw-in. Didn't take long to react to this one. I've seen this play before, but never illegally.
Two such plays in one week. Phase of the moon, maybe?
