Correct.

You would also retain the right to run the endline after a made basket if a timeout is called before the throw-in!

can a player dribble the ball when running the end line after a made basket?

Yes!

can you give me the rule reference to being able to dribble out of bounds after a made basket. thanks

NFHS case book play 9.2.2SitD

Thank You JR!

ok, i can't find my case book, is there a place on the web that i can look at the case book? or will someone reply back with this specific rule on (9.2.2). i had a coach ask me the other day if its legal but could not find the answer in the rule book.

The reason you can't find it is because it is not there, exactly. Rule 9-2 addresses Throw-In Provisions. It states that the player shall not violate the provisions governing the throw-in. Then it lists 10 Articles stating what the thrower shall not do. Dribbling the ball OOB during the throw-in is NOT listed as a no-no.
Thus, it is legal (in both running and spot throw-ins).

Not there? :confused: Um, I referenced casebook play 9.2.2SitD:

Casebook play 9.2.2SitD--<i>A1 dribbles the ball on floor on the out-of-bounds area before making a throw-in.
RULING: Legal, a player may bounce the ball on the out-of-bounds area prior to making a throw-in"</i>.

Couldn't be plainer. What's the confusion?

As I understood it, Roadking was asking for the Rule reference that case play 9.2.2 describes. If a coach asks him again, he wanted to be able to state the Rule
(I thought). So, I was trying to point out how he could back up the legal dribbling using Rule 9-2. Even though case book plays are helpful and go into more detail, they are only tools. We should be able to prove anything that is either legal or illegal using the Rule Book. Sorry I was so dumb.

Roadking was asking for any rules reference that said that it was legal to dribble OOB. And this case book play explicitly answered his question. I'm just kinda confused why he would need to back up a very explicit case book play. Case book plays, by definition, <b>are</b> rules references.

thanks, you both answered my question. always learning!
