Running out of bounds and returning

[DrPete]

So anything in bounds and nothing out establishes in bound status---- and he can be the first to touch. Right?
FWIW The announcers (not Jay Bilas this time) said he had to hop back in bounds and have both feet touch.

Correct

Never listen to the announcers when it comes to rules.

I've had partners make this call, though, so I really can't blame them.

Don't let talking heads make you doubt the rules or common sense.

Does it even sound credible that a player must have 2 feet on the court in order to touch the ball?

The officials are on the court. To the people listening many of them will find it credible.

DrPete is an official, so I'm not sure what point you are making. We are discussing this amongst officials, not fans.
