Backcourt Violation?

[iceman70]

You are correct this is not a violation, see 9-9-3. I don't think that there is a casebook reference for this, though.

Wow that was quick! You must have just been waiting for me to ask a question! LOL!

After I had asked the question I did a search and found the thread.

I don't think this is true for FIBA.

A1 inbounds (in the BC?) and throws the ball to A2. A2 is standing in the FC; he then jumps
catchs the ball
and lands in the BC?
I don't see why this wouldn't be a BC violation.
They have team control
Team A was the last to touch it in the FC
and the first to touch it in the BC

I suppose it's no a BC-vio under rules-sets wich say "no team control" during throw-ins though.

I don't know about FIBA, but I can tell you that while the NCAA does have team control during throw-ins, they have a specific exception that makes this a legal play written into the rules.
