Hey all, newcomer to the boards. Been a spectator for the most part but now I have a question I hope you all can help with. A friend and I were discussing a situation he had in game early last week.
A1, from the backcourt, attempts to pass to A2 in the frontcourt under the basket. The pass is high and richochets off the backboard and is slightly deflected by A3 as it enters the backcourt. A1 retrives the pass in the backcourt.
Ruled a backcourt violation.
I thought it should not have been a backcourt violation because it could have been interpruted as a shot attempt and the 10 second count would reset since there is no team control on a shot attempt. I probably would have blown this call on the floor though because it took me awhile to research and come to a determination.
A vetern official told him that a pass from the backcourt touching the backboard constitutes front court possession but we couldn't find this covered in the rule book. Any thoughts?
