(Nice use of the term "endline" instead of "baseline". Questionable use of the term "jumpball" instead of "heldball", unless you were talking about a play that happened forty years ago? I'll leave it up to Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. to comment on the ancient interpretation. Let me remind Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. that The Official Forum has now merged with Twitter and that all posts must be 140 characters, or less.)
Rob1968: Are you implying that a player who is touching a ball that is touching another player, who happens to be out of bounds, that the inbounds player is also out of bounds, and that this should be treated as two players who knock a ball out of bounds at the same time (held ball)?
No. Only B1 is out of bounds. Team A ball on the endline. Keeping it simple makes this call easy peasey lemon squeezy.
