Nice pick up Nevada! Why didn't they just copy the NCAA wording, since we're changing to an NCAA ruling on throw-ins?
Wouldn't your play be ruled correct by the NCAA wording?

9-12
Section 12. Ball in Back Court
Art. 1. A player shall not be the first to touch the ball in his or her back court
(with any part of his or her body, voluntarily or involuntarily) when the ball
came from the front court while the player’s team was in team control and
the player or a teammate caused the ball to go into the back court.

Art. 2. A player who is the first to secure control of the ball in the front
court after a jump ball or a throw-in while both feet are off the playing court
shall not be permitted to cause the ball to go into the back court, except as
permitted in Rule 4-3.8.


4-3
Art. 8. After a jump ball or during a throw-in, the player in his/her front
court, who makes the initial touch on the ball while both feet are off the
playing court, may be the first to secure control of the ball and land with one
or both feet in the back court. It makes no difference if the first foot down
was in the front court or back court.
