ART. 1 . A player is out of bounds when he/she touches the floor, or any
object other than a player/person, on or outside a boundary. For location of a
player in the air, see 4-35.
ART. 2 . The ball is out of bounds:
a. When it touches or is touched by:
1. A player who is out of bounds.
2. Any other person, the floor, or any object on or outside a boundary.
3. The supports or back of the backboard.
4. The ceiling, overhead equipment or supports.
b. When it passes over a rectangular backboard.

SECTION 2 CAUSING THE BALL TO GO OUT OF BOUNDS – INDIVIDUAL PLAYER
ART. 1 . The ball is caused to go out of bounds by the last player in bounds
to touch it or be touched by it, unless the ball touches a player who is out of
bounds prior to touching something out of bounds other than a player.
ART. 2 . If the ball is out of bounds because of touching or being touched
by a player who is on or outside a boundary line, such player causes it to go out.

SECTION 3 CAUSING THE BALL TO GO OUT OF BOUNDS – SIMULTANEOUSLY
ART. 1 . If the ball goes out of bounds and was last touched simultan eously
by two opponents, both of whom are inbounds or out of bounds, or if the official
is in doubt as to who last touched the ball or if the officials disagree, play shall
be resumed by the team entitled to the alternating-possession throw-in at the
spot out of bounds nearest to where the simultaneous violation occurred.
ART. 2 . If the alternating-possession procedure has not been established,
play shall be resumed by a jump ball between the two players involved in the
center restraining circle.
