In your play. You have to determine who moved first. If defense and then offense, then double violation, possession arrow. If offense moved first, the play is killed at once and the free throw is cancelled or not counted if already in the air.


Be careful. It doesn't matter who moves first. All that matters is who's foot crosses the line first (or who touches in the lane first if the feet haven't crossed the line).

A player may, at any time, legally move within the 3'x3' box that makes up the lane space (short of disconcertion). It is legal if player A2 takes a step back to spring into the lane as soon as the ball hits something.
