The rules video (with the players acting out scenarios) shows a rebound being tipped out towards the 3-point line followed by a drive to the basket and a crash w/i the RA. It's ruled a PC b/c there is no secondary defender/RA on this type of play. It's around the 25:40 mark of the video. The commentary says "tipped to a wing player". So I guess we would have to decide how far out a tip/rebound can go and determine "immediate drive to the basket".
