I called this once this year. Thrower ran all the way to the other side of the lane OOB behind a screen to catch a pass in an advantageous position. T.
Nothing else to call there, but a call had to be made. Granted, if he doesn't end up in the advantageous position, I probably just give him a warning at the next dead ball. But in this case, the act that the rule intends to penalize blatantly showed itself.
Coach wasn't happy at first but understood the explanation. I bet his players never try this again.
