Once he chooses to step around the defender before coming back inbounds, he's gained an advantage, so I'm not seeing this one. Assuming the defender was attempting to screen or guard him, of course. If the defender was paying no attention to him, then I don't see a whistle here.

This one makes sense. I get this one. But I'd likely say something to him, because his intent was to cause an advantage, however none was gained.
