Jeez.. after reading my explanation I suck...

Player A was throwing in from out of bounds to player B, who jumps in the air from the frontcourt, catches the ball, then lands in the backcourt. Sorry for the confusion..

Legal play on a throw-in. There is no team control until the player catches the ball. However, the rule allows him to land in the BC without violating in this sitch.
