Backcourt violation-clarification
During a throwin, even under a team’s own basket, if the throwin is deflected, tipped, or batted by an offensive player in the frontcourt to an offensive player in the backcourt; or after a missed field goal attempt, or a missed foul shot attempt, if the ball is deflected, tipped, or batted by an offensive player in the frontcourt to an offensive player in the backcourt; these are not a backcourt violations.
However, in the case book 9.9.1 Situation D, states that this is indeed a backcourt violation. Is it strictly because the player leapt from the front court into the backcourt versus already being in the backcourt?
