Are both of these scenarios violations? I say 'yes' and A1 loses the 1-1 opportunity.

(#2) Now that the rule change has been made for NFHS to coincide w/the NCAA - may leave the spot on the 'release', may a defender in the Lane spots # 2 perform a 'spin move' once the ball is released? I believe not, since I recall that a rule was made that these defenders must come 'straight in' and not be allowed to go around the # 1 spots.

Rule/Case Book references would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
#1a, yes, that is a violation.
#1b, Live ball entered the basket....shot counts...ball dead....official observes A2 and A3 in the wrong spot(s)....too late.\

#2, no such rule. They can go any direction they want.
