Was the ruling correct?

Been reading posts for a while. Now I have a question.....

I had a game recently, in which, I observed an official make a call that
confused me because I haven't seen anything written on it. The ball was
given to a player for a 'spot' throw in. The player bounced the ball once,
without touching the line and then proceeded to throw the ball in. The
official called a violation and awarded the ball to the other team. I
asked him about the call after the game and he stated that a player can not
dribble the ball during the throw in. Was the official correct in his
call?

Hopefully the question is clear. Please advise. Thanks in advance for
your help.

The official was wrong. NFHS case book play 9.2.2SitD is the exact play.

Good grief. Did he signal a double dribble, too?

He was way wrong.

NFHS Basketball fundamental #5. Neither the dribble nor traveling rule operates during the jump ball, throw-in or free throw.

BTW, the ball could have even "touched" the line....it's still OOB!

Welcome to the forum. Enjoy! And don't take everything too seriously!

He actually signalled travel, which I knew that to be incorrect. Thanks for the feedback....

Welcome to the forum.
Just in case you don't have a case book handy:
9.2.2 SITUATION D: 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.
