Ball Lodges

Thanks

The double dribble actually occurs at the time of the release. It is just that you can't know whether it is a dribble or a pass until it is again touched by either A1 or another player.

(Assuming this does become a double dribble) -- So is the throw-in spot where A1 initially released the ball, or where A1 subsequently touches the ball?

Or could it be where the "dribble" itself occurred (backboard).

I believe it would be where the ball was released. But, for all practical purposes, it will not matter much. The spot will be in the backcourt for the team getting the ball. Some spots might be a little more advantageous than others but unless we're talking about it being in the corner vs the lane line vs the 28' mark, I'm not going to worry about that one.

The ball would be inbounded from the spot closest to where the violation occurred. In this case, the violation occurred when the player touched the ball.

I'll save myself the headache if this ever happens in a game and go with the AP. I'm sure with the exception of a few people on this board no one else will bat an eyelash.

As a side note meant only as a comment - Throw-in violations can occur a long way from the inbounder and the resulting throw-in takes place at the original throw-in spot.

The two clauses of your sentence are contradictory.

After a violation, the ball is put back in play with a throw-in at a spot closest to where the violation occurred. So if the violation occurs a long way from the inbounder, why would the resulting throw-in take place at the original throw-in spot?

A ball thrown directly OOB without touching any player on the court.

Yes, this too. It is really splitting hairs because it is technically a throw-in violation and not necessarily an out of bounds violation. The act/action just takes place far away.

The violation does not occur where the ball goes OOB, as the violation is not for throwing it OOB. It is for not throwing it onto the court--which occurred at the spot of the throw.

Consider an inbounder throwing the ball a great distance that enters the hoop. That is a violation and the ensuing throw-in will be at the original throw-in spot.

That is a violation. But WHAT is the violation? Where does the violation occur?

What is the violation for and what is the definition of a dribble? You might have a different answer if you go with those.
