Jump Ball Question
I'll try to describe what happened as accurately as possible:
Team A & Team B jump it up. Team A is taller and attempts to tip it forward to Team A's PG. While the ball is on it's downward flight to Team A's PG, the jumper from team B reaches out and deflects the ball up in the air to himself and then tips it again sideways directly to his teammate, who controls it. All of this occurred while Team B's jumper was in the circle. Just wondering if there is any type of violation here? Thanks. |

It is legal because each jumper is permitted to tip the ball twice during the jump ball. The jump ball ends when the ball touches the floor or a non-jumper. At the point where it went to a non-jumper, no jumper touched it more than twice. |
