So, if, on a throw-in by Team A, even if the ball is tipped by either team, Team B can jump from their front court, catch the ball in the air, and land in their backcourt with no violation?
Thanks!

Check out 9-9-3 and Case Book 9.9.1 - "The exception granted during a throw-in ends when the throw-in ends and is only for the player making the initial touch on the ball."
