IAABO Refresher Exam #61
 

Our IAABO Refresher Exam study group met last night. We could not come up with a consensus on question #61. We did not have access to an answer sheet, nor to an appropriate citation.

#61 A-1’s frontcourt end-line throw-in is deflected by A-2. Before B-1 can secure control of the ball, A-2 fouls B-1 in Team A’s frontcourt. The official rules a team-control foul on A-2 and awards the ball to Team B for a throw-in from the applicable throw-in spot. Is this correct?

What say you, and why?

I would be surprised if there isn't a case play.

I say Yes, and here is why.
Team A has Team Control during a Throw-in. Since Team A HAS NOT lost Team Control status, the foul committed by A-2 is a Team Control foul. Thus Team B WOULD NOT attempt Free Throws. The foul occurred in Team A's Front Court, this is Team B's Back Court. If the foul was outside the 3-pt arc, then the Throw-in is at the 28' mark on the appropriate side

(last year's reference) 4-19-7: A TC foul.. from the start of the throw-in until player control is obtained inbounds

Player Control Is Obtained Inbounds ...
 

Perfect citation.

Thank you bob jenkins.

4-19-7: A team-control foul is a common foul committed by a member of the team that has team control or by a member of the throw-in team from the start of the throw-in until player control is obtained inbounds.

Yes, this is correct.
