Good question.

Nope, you can't grant the TO because the ball is no longer in control of or at the disposal of the thrower or a teammate.

You knew that.:) Good pont.

Similar thing actually happened in one of my games. Player received the ball for the throw in. As they were initiating the inbounds play she slapped the ball and fumbled it. The ball bounced sideways and actually landed on the endline. The player stepped half in bounds (by this I mean one foot in and one foot out of bounds) to retreive the ball then backed up and attempted to throw the ball in. Obvious violation, right. I actually had to explain to the coach what she did.
