Tip pass
 
Player A1 is six feet from the basket and shoots an air ball. A1 runs for the rebound and , while the ball is still in the air, ‘taps’ the ball to A2 . The referee allows the play to continue. Is this a legal play?

Is it ever illegal to rebound/be the first to touch one’s own try for goal?

If it were illegal, what would the violation have been?

(Hint: it’s not illegal, but I’m trying to lead you to the answer.)

The two cases are ever-so slightly different. I think the OP wanted to see if that made a difference in the ruling.

So I will add for hint.... goes to definitions. What happens on a shot? (You have to determine if it is a legitimate shot) and NBA rules differ here

Shot Attempt ...
 
Airball:

9.5.1 SITUATION: A1 ends a dribble and then jumps and releases the ball on a try for goal. B1 partially blocks the shot, but A1 secures control again while still in the air. A1 returns to the floor and dribbles to the basket and scores. RULING: Legal maneuver. Both player control and team control ended when A1 released the ball. When A1 recovered he/she could dribble again similar to dribbling after catching a pass or rebound.

It is only illegal under NBA rules. In all other rule sets, it is fair game.
